I'm having trouble locating the tach line(wire). Does anyone know where it is and point me in the right direction?

 

Does anyone else have a tach installed in their OZ Lancer? I need to run a tap into the tach wire but I can't locate it. I've successfully connected the other two lines.

 

if no one replies to you contact the creator of this thread:

he seems like he knows what he's doing when it comes to the instrument panel. good luck. and remmeber to post a how-to when your done.

 

Maybe hit up vfaq.com? They have wiring diagrams for AFC's which require the tach pulse signal so maybe you can look at that? Worth a shot regardless that it's DSM oriented.

 

here is the install guide for the 3g eclipse. i dunno how similar the wiring would be but here is how they do it http://www.geocities.com/jeff712walker/tachinstall.htm i'd check out the wire colors to make sure that they are the same or if different, what colors they are

 

Found the trick to getting the signal line for the tach. I didnt even have to splice anything. In the engine compartment on the left of the fuse box you will find that the Mitsubishi was kind enough to make a socket that directly outputs the engine's speed readouts. simply plug the wire into the socket at the bottom and you get instant RPM readings on your new aftermarket tach. Thanks to Kirk of Browning Mitsu for assisting me on research.

 

wow, that is pretty cherry of them. Pyro, is this some aftermarket tach? and if so, Y?

 

ya i found about that a little while ago in my service manuals.
haha, later
