I'm not sure, but if your car is a turbo diesel, then
the tach would most likey be driven mechanically with
a cable or driven electrically by a signal generated
by the alternator. The electric signal from the
alternator is the most likely means (common on VW
diesels), and its possible that the alternator has
been replaced with one that does not have a provision
for a tach signal, or the wire hasn't been connected,
or the tach is simply dead. I have seen tachs that
have taken permanent vacations.
Just a thought.
