    Tach not working

    My tach is not working when the engine is running. It just sits on zero. What I dont understand is it works when I am cranking the engine to start it. The tach stops working when the engine starts. Any ideas? Ray

    Hummm!

    I replaced the trigger when I first got the boat. Is it possible I got a wire wrong? Ray

    Damn!

    I was afraid you were gonna say that. I stink at electrical. I dont even know what the rectifier is or what it looks like. I would rather stick pins in my eyes than try to fix an electrical problem. Maybe I should re mortgage the house and bring it to a merc stealer...I mean dealer. If I lived anywhere but Florida I could just put it away for the winter. Ray
