Anyone have any suggestions what to check first on a tach and hour meter on a 955, just bought this tractor and not sure whether it might be the cable, tach of both.

Do you have an automotive style multimeter? If you do, you could check the tach signal at the wire-meter connection, and then at the wire-engine connection. This would let you know if the problem is in the engine, in the wire or in the meter.

The wire-meter connection point is obvious, but I have no idea where the wire-engine connection is located.

Bjohn - It's best not to post the same question in multiple forums. You got several responses to your question in the parts/repairs forum. I think the 955 has a mechanical tach rather than electronic. Check the cable.
