89 FJ1200 TACHOMETER

[KBLFJ1200]

Does anyone know about FJ tachometers?  Had an electrical surge, (regulator failed on supposed rebuilt alternator/generator, blew out all bulbs and turn signal flasher/relay and battery. Got it all back together Tach don't work, nothing in service manual.    How do I check tach?  Lot of work R&Ring.  HELP!!!!.
I wish I would have known tach didn't work when I had the whole thing apart, maybe some kind of breaker/fuse in the wiring somewhere or do I have to take dt all apart again and replace the entire tach?

Thanks,
Karl

i wouldnt be surprised if it fried the tach.... i've had a bad ground before and it melted the battery posts clean off the battery.... i imagine a bad regulator could cause similar damage.
