Found the circuit schematic from Internet. it is somehow different version as our tach. but the basic concept is the same:

Checking detail:

  • 7W Z1 Zener diode ouput 7.1 V … okay , working
  • 3 transistors BSX68 … okay, de-soldered and checked
  • 3 IN4148 diode, … okay, checked working
  • 3 capacitors de-soldered.. checked okay, some leaking and weaken capacitance, but still working

Spare transistor parts: BSX68 is a 40 years old transistor. Common replacement is NPN 2n3904 that I have a few at home.

This is the precise Signal Generator from my company Lab.

Technicians claimed it worth twenty thousand HKD back 10 yrs ago.

I tried 10v to 14v square wave, range 1khz to 10khz. No response. 🙁

Then tried to put a 3v DC across the pointer rotor motor. It  turns. 🙂
