DIY nexia tachometer repair

In detail: do-it-yourself Nexia tachometer repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

Hello everyone!
The problem is this: The tachometer lives its own life, it works, then it doesn't.
I shoveled the entire search, both on this site and on others, and did not find anything intelligible. All similar topics are either closed for a long time or without a solution (found an answer and left).
I am already dismantling the torpedo at a time, how to drink tea, only it began to crunch, and the problem can not be localized in any way. I have already been to solder the area where the bolt and the board are connected and smeared with grease and cleaned the contacts on the board. It helps everything for a week, then everything is new. I noticed one discrepancy: When unscrewing the tachometer contact bolts, adhered washers remain on the board (they are soldered or something). Picking them up with a screwdriver, you tear them off, tighten the bolts and everything works.
Also, the work of the tachometer depends on the humidity outside, in the rain it often fails (everything goes to poor contact).
The only thing that helped for a relatively long time, or rather 3 months, was to lubricate the contacts of the board and the bolt with solid oil (three months without worries), but not to disassemble the torpedo every three months.
I found an article on one of the forums where someone mentioned a non-working tachometer & t = 2827 # p44571, but I still did not understand whether they put resistance there because of the difference in the car model or because of a problem like mine.
Can anyone solve this problem. Write how. I am sure that this is not the only one, and that now everyone is closing their eyes.

Help people! What else to try?

The problem is not with him, the cigarette lighter is working fine.

There is no tachometer on the GL Nexia. Some resigned themselves to this shortcoming, but I decided to make up for it and install an external electronic tachometer on the Nexia (16 cl. DOHC GL).

Video (click to play).

Initially, we disassemble the dashboard (see “How to remove the dashboard”).

Also, we are looking for power for the tachometer (“+” and “-“), I took power from the clock. We connect the power, carefully isolate

Next, we are looking for exactly what the tachometer does not work for many. Where to connect the wire for receiving the pulse signal.

Answer: It is connected to the left connector going to the dashboard, to pin "15"

Alternatively, you can install such a tachometer - also a good option! The connection is identical to mine, only the power was taken not from the clock, but from the above left connector of the instrument panel:

  • "+ 12V" with the ignition on - contact "14"
  • "Mass" - contact "2"

Daewoo Nexia belongs to the middle class cars. He began his history in 1984. Only then it was called Opel Kadett. When the German manufacturer took the car out of production in 1991, the license for its production was bought by Daewoo Motors. The car went through a deep restyling and in 1994 appeared on the South Korean market under the name Daewoo Racer, and a little later began to be sold around the world as Daewoo Nexia. It was discontinued in South Korea in 1997, but production continued in Vietnam, Egypt, Romania and Uzbekistan. Moreover, in the last of the above countries, the production of the car continues today.

At different times, various engines were installed on the car. In total, during the production of the car, four different types of engine were provided for it - their indexes F16D3, A15SMS, A15MF, and also G15mMF.

Based on the type of motors used, various speedometers were installed on the cars. For A15MF, G15mMF engines, a mechanically driven speedometer was used, which was equipped with a special cable. On more modern engines F16D3 and A15SMS, data on vehicle speed was transmitted to the device from a speed sensor.

However, in both the first and second options, there are some design flaws that can appear during long-term operation of the car and cause a malfunction.

Depending on the type of drive, each type of Daewoo Nexia speedometer has its own malfunctions.

For a speedometer with a cable drive, the main malfunction is the destruction of the cable ends, made of plastic and having the shape of a tetrahedron. During operation, their edges are erased and cease to transmit torque to the speedometer.

In order to confirm or deny this malfunction, it is imperative to dismantle the instrument panel. After that, it is necessary to unscrew the union nut, with which the cable is attached to the speedometer, which, in turn, makes it possible to assess the condition of the cable tip. If the tip is in good condition on the side of the instrument panel, the only option for checking is to drive a certain distance - approximately 5-6 meters, while holding the speedometer cable with your hand.
