Tachometer: Description and Operation
Tachometer
The tachometer indicates engine speed in rpm (revolutions per minute) with the engine running. A wire to the "TACH" connector on the ignition module
measures the ignition pulses of the module. An electronic circuit on the tachometer converts these pulses to rpm data.
CAUTION: When removing or installing any electrical units, disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent possible short circuits which could lead
to personal injury and/or property damage.
When replacing the odometer assembly, the law requires the odometer reading of the replacement unit to be set to the same mileage as the prior
odometer. If the mileage cannot be set, the law requires that the replacement odometer be set at zero and a label be installed on the driver's door frame to
show previous odometer reading and the date of replacement.
