how to install automotive tachometer on a snowmobile
You need an aftermarket tach adaptor autometer makes a good one
This entirely depends on the vehicle and the type of tach your referring to such as a add on tach or an OEM in dash tach. To explain how to install and OEM tach would take far to long. I would suggest a add on tach that mounts basically where ever you want to mount it. Most of these tachs explain the installation instructions. I personally recommend a tach by Autometer you can view their products on the web at the link below. , EzForJesus http://www.autometer.com/
i have no clue, im trying to figure out how to install a tachometer to a 93 civic cx hatxhback, cuz my car dont even have a stock tach, and i got a autometer tach. if u find n e thing out help me outand send me an e mail shorty54545@yahoo.com
theirs a green wire by distributer that is for the tach
IF you have the installation instructions for the tach, it prolly tells you where to attach the tach wire. If not, call the manu. of the tach or search for their website online.
what's an autometer?
Do you mean an oil pressure gauge? Not tach?
if you mean tach/tachometer you have find an aftermarket tach driver and plug it in where the original tach plugs in
If you don't have a distributor on your car, you will need to get a tach adapter for your car. So that you can get an rpm signal from your car to the tachometer.Hey dude, here's how to connect the green wire from your tachometer: Tach output is obtained from PCM (powertrain control module) which is a 104 wire connector, and is located behind the passenger side kick panel. Look for pin number 48, which is usually an orange wire with a white stripe.(4.6L is = 4 ppr)Your best bet is to check out the autometer's web site which provides most all the information you might need. If you can't find the info email autometer tech support.Go to test connector inside the fusebox under the hood, it is a t-shaped plug. Tach is the terminal on the top left of the T. The wire under the terminal is white or white/red.
There should be installing instructions with the tach. If not contact the manufacturer.
you can install any kind of tach you want to in your car..if you do not have a stock tach then look in your manual for the rmp sensor wire..should be blue or green coming off the distributor...just splice into it...if you have a stock tach you can just splice into the stock tach wires by taking off the dash
I would suggest you try to find the manufacturer of your tachometer on the web and check out their support site and email them if needed for your particuliar vehicle. For instance below is a link to Autometer's Tech Tip web site however unless you own an Autometer Tach this may be useless to you. There are so many different ignition systems today that it would be difficult to explain each. So its best to get the info from the pro's. , EzForJesus http://hp.autometer.com/techtips/techtips.html
