Looking for some advice

At the end of last season I lost the last of my gauges on the dashboard in my boat. The gas guage never worked right to begin with, no big deal just fill up every time before you run. The trim gauge stopped working no big deal, trim before you leave the dock plus you can tell how the boat performs if you are trimmed correctly.

Lost my speedometer, no biggie as I can see my speed on my GPS.

Lost my tach, now I have a big deal. I like to run between 4000 and 4200 when headed somewhere. I rarely go over that but sometimes I will push to 4500-4700 to outrun a thunderhead or fog. I really need my tach.

I have been told that it is probably corrosion in the main connector that goes from the dashboard back to the engine.

I want to know if this sounds right and if not, where should I start?

No boat, back in the suds.
