Default Just picked up a 1985.5 944

Hi everyone I'm new to the community. I just got a 944 off of criagslist on a trade for a Honda grom lol. The car seems great but definitely has some issues. I've been fixing little things all week and I just wanted to ask a couple questions that I just couldn't seem to find the answer for. First, my tach seems to work only when it wants too it'll work one day and not the next. What could that be? The odometer doesn't work either but that hasn't worked at all. Second, I see on the top left of (intake) air box there seems to supposed to be a hose there but it's gone. What hose is that and is it needed? Also out of curiousity what is with the light on the passenger side right above the glovebox next to the cigarette lighter? Is there a reason for it? Thanks guys!
