R33 Gsts With Nismo Dash

[sagluren]

Hey, ive just put a nismo dash in my 33, everything was working well, after having it in my car for a few days the tacho started to play up intermittentely.

It stays at 11 grand and occasionally reads correct.

Does anyone have any experience with these dashes? know if this is a common problem or a easy fix?

Or know anyware that may be able to fix it?

cheers sam

Good with Electronics?

Going to have to pull it back out and apart. You need to get the printed circuit board separate from to Motor for the RPM needle as there are some messy solders on it. There are 4 solder points to pull the board off to motor and RPM needle. When you have done that your going to have to work on the micro chip as they didn't manufacture it well (micro chip is soldered on with about 20 or more pins), the solder would have become hard and it starting to crack at the printed circuit board from age. Need to take it off the board, scrape (very carefully) off the old solder resist stuff (which is a green coating) and then old solder so you can resolder the micro chip back onto the printed circuit board.
