Hardly rocket science but if only one thing changes - the bloke
connects a different tachometer - and all the instruments fail then
Which I will of course try today. Yesterday I tried switching the old tach
wires (see original post). That was a "no go" because the connectors allow
only one proper connection on the new instrument. Note that only the temp
gauge is acting up. All other gauges (oil, voltage, tach, alarms, lights,
etc.) perform properly.
Leave the tach unconnected and see whether the other instruments work.
then connect the tach and see. should tell you something. The tach has
three wires? Battery, or Ign., Ground, and Signal?
Does it have a multitude of jumpers or micro switches to set RPM and
number of poles on the alternator?
Cheers,
Bruce
