Hi,
Whilst no one has replied, I know that some people with way more knowledge than me have done a repair/rebuild of these, but it isn't an easy job.
The most recent posting on this subject was that somebody replaced the 'guts' inside with those from a cheap Chinese generic rev counter for very little cost.
Might be worth a search.
Regards, George

I don’t know anything about them. But if it was mine I would try to save it! Capacitors are cheap if you can get enough info off the old ones! Is the rotor free? Are there any electricalcontacts on the rotor? Good luck

Maybe try an instrument expert like The Gauge Man, Peter Bond.

I believe that Mark Bridger of this parish has repaired one, but concluded that it isn't commercially viable to do so (?).
Only other help may be to look up 'Ferrari Dino' rev counter repair as they are very similar inside.
