DIY: TACH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Hey all, i installed a tach today. It was reletively easy. The longest part was finding where to put the wires. I have pics(cell phone, sorry for quality) for the installation process.


Sorry i didnt get the Red tach wire pic, but i just input it into the ACC fuse under the driverside dash. This way when the key is turned on and car started, the tach will also come to life. Its in slot #24 in the fuse box housing and is a 7.5 amp fuse. This will power the tach at 12v. I just put the wire right to the fuse, i choose to do this cause i didn't know where else to put it. Im sure you could hook it up more properly on some wire somewhere nearby.

Hope this all helps.

UPDATE: (6/11/06) Dont hook the illumination wire to the Greenish-blue wire on the dimmer as in the first picture shown, try hooking it to either the stereo illumination or some other dash lighting.
