The tacho reading will be taken from the negative wires off a coil... i think.. i know thats what its like on most cars.

is there location?

becuz my canr rpm is stuck on the 3000rpm... when I turn engine off it drop back to 0.

so it's not instrumental problem so means some thing wrong with sensor or sendor?

It still could be instrumental. Get it checked out and stop being a tight ass LOL. No honestly the readings are taken off the coil. Could be faulty wiring or connections or the tacho itself. get it check out by a mechanic or auto electrician.

good luck friend.

Well its not your coil (sensor) cause then your car would be real agro1

It will be in the dash i wouldnt bother taking the coil cover off

I had a similar problem and got auto repair after repair to hunt down the wiring, checked all the engine managment and sensor and was fine. Adventually I got of my ASS and replaced the Tacho all fixed, mind you the Tacho wasn't cheap!

There isn't a 'Tacometer[sic] sensor' as such, the ECU gets the angle of rotation of the camshaft from the CAS (Cam Angle Sensor), from this it can calculate the speed of rotation of the crankshaft, and using this generates a negative pulse for every rotation of the crank.

This pulse is the signal on pin 7 of the ecu, and that is what the rev counter uses.

Sounds to me like a problem with the rev counter instrument itself or the wiring between the ecu and instrument cluster, as there is very little that could go wrong with the ECU.
