    Hello this is my first post. I have a 97 GTP, and one day last fall the tach needle dropped to zero and has been there ever since. I have read several forum posts about the crankshaft position sensor being the problem, but in all those the engine was misfiring or having some intermittent problems, where my engine is running fine. It's just the tack stays on zero. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

    Could be a bad cluster. Not sure if there is a fuse specifically for the tach, but could be that as well.

    And Welcome to GPF.

    I appreciate the replies, I'm gonna need to take the bezel off to get to the radio anyway, so I guess I'll plan on lifting the cluster out and do it all at once.
    Thanks !
