I'm having trouble installing an Autometer tach in my 99 GT. I bought the adapter that is required and wired it as suggested. Now the motor is running like crap and the tach needle just jumps up and down. Any suggestions?
The below info for '01 to '04.Tachometer Signal Wire Installation
for 4.6L engine(s)
Must use model number 9117 Auto Meter tachometer adapter. Locate the large, square 42 pin wire harness connector in the corner of the engine bay where the passenger fender meets the firewall. Pop the plastic cover off of the top of this conector to expose where the wires enter the connector and to expose the wire pin numbers. Locate pin number 34 which will be in the corner of this connector and will be a white wire with a blue stripe. Cut this wire in half so that you now have two cut halves. Hook the red of the adapter to the cut half coming from the connector. hook the red/green of the adapter to the other cut half. Ground the black wire of the adapter. The gray wire of the adapter will now provide you with a good tachometer signal.
LaserRed01GT is correct in everything,minus the colored wires to your year.No biggy.Tachometer Signal Wire Installation
