is it a factory tach in the cluster??

it runs off the dizzy ...or the ecu...im not sure on a nissan...

i would try to borrow a good cluster real quick and see if that fixes it...it could be screwed up in the cluster

mine did something similar to this problem, and it ended up just being a bad cluster. Just try replacing it...i payed 50 shipped for a new(er) cluster and it worked fine.
