Title: Factory Tach
Post by: hoots on January 17, 2004, 03:32:54 PM
Picked up a new cluster with the factory tach. Does anyone know the color code for the wires. The harness is 4 wire, red w/light green tracer, grey w/black dots, black, green w/yellow dots.

Any help or links to a schematic is grately appreciated.

Red/green is switched hot...the grey shows to ground to the alternator?(I'd look for a grey wire on the ALT)...black is a chassis ground...dark green/yellow goes to the coil (where a wire the same color already attaches)

Hope I'm right... the grey wire throws me though why would a tack hook into the alternator?
