sounds like a possibly loose connector or something... very odd

have the same problem also, best bet is to check/clean ecu with electrical cleaner and see if that works.

thanks for the feedbacks guys ...i got both the tach and speedo to work. what happen was that the speedo wire was breaking off where the ecu is..so it was loose, that's why it cause it to come on sometimes. As for the tach don't know what happen but it's not connected somehow to the motor itself..so i had to run a wire directly to the tach wire on the engine from the firewall harness and bam it came alive..so there was a broken circuit somewhere.
