1.9td Rev counter switch - redfar
Hello,
I have a Peugeot 406 1.9td and rev counter some times it drops to zero.I have read that there is a pick up sensor on the fly wheel but I can't find it.If some one knows the location exactly or can take a picture I will epriciate very much.
Thanks

Standard problem on 405s too - is there a long term cure?

The sensor is located at the top of the flywheel housing just below the cylinder head, the problem is likely to be with the two pin plug that connects it to the loom making intermittent contact. Take it out and scrape the pins, apply a little grease and refit.

Is the one with 10mm bolt because when I removed it the revcounter still works when I tried that sensor.

I attached a picture and marked with cyrcle the sensor.Is this that pick up the signal?
