• Complete Installation Kit: Ships with all necessary wiring harnesses and a mounting ring for a straightforward installation process.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Gauge Type: Tachometer
• Compatibility: 1-12 cylinder standard spark plug ignition systems
• Range: 0-12,000 RPM
• Size: 2-1/16 inch (52mm)
• Hole Size: 2.062 inches (52mm)
• Internal Shift Light: Yes
• Gauge Mounting Ring: Included
• Ships With:
• 8 ft Tachometer Harness (1 Wire 2 Pin Connector)
• 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness

HOW TO USE:

1. Mount the Gauge: Choose a suitable location on your vehicle’s dashboard or instrument panel and create a 2.062-inch (52mm) diameter hole. Secure the tachometer in place using the included mounting ring.
2. Connect the Power and Lighting Harness: Connect the 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness to a 12V power source, ground, and your vehicle’s lighting circuit (if you desire the gauge to illuminate with your headlights).
3. Connect the Tachometer Signal Harness: Connect the 8 ft Tachometer Harness. One wire will connect to the negative (-) side of your coil or the designated tachometer output signal wire from your vehicle’s ECU (refer to your vehicle’s wiring diagram).
4. Ground the Tachometer: Ensure a good ground connection for both harnesses.
5. Set the Shift Light (if applicable): Follow the manufacturer’s instructions (which would typically be included with the product) to set the desired RPM point for the internal shift light to activate. This usually involves a configuration process using buttons or dials on the gauge.
6. Test the Gauge: Start your engine and observe the tachometer reading to ensure it is functioning correctly. Verify that the shift light illuminates at the set RPM.
