zilli Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Hey cam, care to share som info into how you wired it? ive got an old tacho sitting at home and i lost the wiring instructions for so I'm not sure how to do it Quote
Medicine_Man Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Any more info on the specific car you are wiring it to? What make/model? Usually you wire it up to your park light circuit so when you turn your park lights on it will illuminate the tacho.. Quote
4ages Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Just wire it to the park ligt fuse.. In most cases, Green : neg of dizzy Red : power Black : earth Yellow/white : park light fuse Quote
Taz_Rx Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Deffinately parks, not headights. If you wire it to the headlights, it'll probably turn off when you use high beam. on the parkers it won't. :fuzz: Quote
