Re: tach install help

Alright, the wires coming off the back of the tach are green, red, white, and black. black and white wires connect to your lights, just find a = and - that gets power when the lights are on. The red wire will connect to a switch(key on) power supplie. they make some nifty little connectors that would make the part nice and easy. one side you just slid over the wire your connecting to, and the other side you put in the wire your connection. dont know what they are called. the green wire will connect to the tach wire off the dizzy, its white. You will need the converter or some kinda of msd, mallory, accel box to give it the right signal. I would post some pics, but im in Austin tx, and my camara is in Houston. If you have any more questions let me know.. J
