Tach Gauge LEDs Dim
My R53 Tachometer gauge LEDS in the small screen for outside temp. (housing is comprised of the Tach & Speedo as part of the drivers console) get dim when it gets hot outside and comes back on when the temperature outside gets below 70F. Is there a vendor that can fix this, probably a bad resistor.
Thanks
Thanks
Other the replacing the tach with a new one. I would pull apart the tach and see if there bad connection on the board. Or make sure the photo cell works, it brightens the tach in direct sunlight. Do you have the stock tach ?

Yes this is the combo tach/speedo if you have the chrono pkg. The tach works but the small info screen on the bottom is dim when its hot and you can see when its cold. Yes the photo cell works.
