Tach connection

All:

My rear engine tach stopped working. The way it stopped made me think that maybe the wire came off the connection on the engine. Problem is that I cant get the plane into the mechanic for almost 6 weeks because they are behind.

I have read the maintenance manual and it says that the right mag has a second set of breaker points for the tach. However, that is for serial number 526 and up. Mine is below that and there is no discussion of the tach connection for the early serial numbers.

If a wire has simply come off, I will reattach it. So if you have any information on where to look (pictures would be amazing!) I would much appreciate it. I really hate waiting 6 weeks if it is a simple wire.

Thanks much guys!!!
