Tach install neee help

[Roland69]

I got it mounted nice and clean and the red wire going to a switched power...The white wire is what I'm having trouble finding a spot for. where did you hook yours up. And while I'm here I should ask what wire did you use for the green tach wire. My tach came with a pickup plug wire conductor and a green wire if I didn't want to use the pickup conductor.

White wire is lights I think... hook up to brown in white (i think) striped wire on headlight switch. Green goes to the coil (i think) and DO NOT ground it to the radio or anywhere around there- won't work if you do

Can I pop the headlight switch out without removing the gauge bezel I already had that out today lol.

Ok since I don't use my fog lights (because it would probly catch fire) I used the fuse spot for the white wire when I toun the lights on....I don't use my heater controls because My heater core is toast so I used the fuse spot in the pannel for the red wire it comes on with the key. I found a ground under the dash...I drilled a hole and self taped a screw with the wire connector between....


My only ? is now does the green tach wire go to the green wire comming off the coil.

not sure what color is what.. but you oughta be able to figure it.. especially since both should be different colors.. what two colors are there? but it needs to be hooked to the - side of the coil

 

[Mike92GT]

The green wire needs to go to the negative side of the coil

 

[KENS89LX]

The green wire is hooked up to the coil on the negative side, mine is green with yellow stripe
