There are some setting switches on the back that can get corroded. Turn them back and forth and make sure they are on the right setting. Forgive me, I am not sure which one it should be but you can google it. I would give that a try. Happened to em a couple years ago.
ok will try that ---the tach always worked fine , until 1st trip out after changing the crankin battery ---weird

Mine started all of a sudden as well. Hopefully just a coincidence
