The item on the front fender is the tach amp.

Sometimes it can be brought back to life by inserting a foam peanut or a cigarette but under the cap to apply pressure to the integrated circuit.

Get yourself a MB repair CD with the wiring diagrams for info which wires are which.

It sounds like your tach has been disconnected behind the instrument cluster...
