My trim gauge and tach gauge aren't working. The tach gauge will work briefly if I tap hard on the console top

The trim gauge and tachometer on a Bayliner 265 may not be working due to several possible causes:
1. Electrical Connection Issues – Loose, corroded, or disconnected wiring may prevent signals from reaching the gauges. 2. Faulty Sending Units – A malfunctioning trim sender or tachometer signal source (such as the alternator or ignition system) could cause failure. 3. Radio Interference – VHF or other radio transmissions may cause erratic tachometer readings, though this does not cause permanent failure. 4. Blown Fuse or Power Supply Issue – A blown fuse or disrupted power supply may prevent the gauges from functioning. 5. Gauge Failure – The gauges themselves may be defective or damaged.
Checking the wiring, fuses, and sending units should help diagnose the problem.
