Intermitent rev counter

My rev counter sometime works and sometimes doesn't (R reg 1.9 TD Xantia). If it doesn't work i can sometimes get it working by starting the engine again, i removed the fly wheel sensor and cleaned it, plus the connector but has made no differance.

Is it time to get a new sensor or is the fly wheel need a clean?

Cheers

ITs likely the sensor could be electrically breaking down, certainly with engine heat..

It could be your needle lift sensor.
It's on the 2nd injector from the cambelt end.
Jenny had a problem with hers, sometimes the rev would work, sometimes it wouldn't, sometimes the engine would run smooth, sometimes it ran like a bag of nails.
Replaced the injector and all was well.
