Hey hondatech Iam having a problem with my tach, its not reading the rpms!
The lights work and everything else works fine, can someone tell me wich wire i can run str8 from the dizzy to my cluster?

btw its the second cluster ive tried!
oh and its a gsr with a dx harness into a vtec cabin harness lol

thanks any suggestions will help

 

there should be a black and blue wire on the dizzy that are fat. It's the blue one, on the dizzy. and as for the cluster, I have no idea. Try an after market tach to see if it gets a reading??? I had the problem where my tach would sometimes work and it would sometimes not work. My problem was that my dash harness was burnt out because the stupid *** dealer used the wrong fuse and i shorted something and blah blah. Long story short, the smoke inside of my car scared the fukc out of me.

 

ok so its the blue one! and where does the black lead to? i wanna check that ground!

 

i dont think its a ground, not sure. i think the dizzy grounds itself???

 

Black/yellow wire= power to coil, blue fat wire=tach signal wire from coil. Coil is grounded to dizzy is grounded to engine... I think thats how the ground is...

 

ok so if run a wire from that fat blue wire to the back of the cluster it should work?

 

I don't know if hard wiring the factory tach is a good idea... Just buy and inexspensive<sp? tach from advance or something. More than likely you have a problem with the gauge itself anyways.

 

yea i hate aftermarket tachs

and this is the second cluster ive tried

 

any1 else

 

 

any other suggestions?

 

 

have you got it to work yet?

 

not yet havent had time yet! will do tonight

 

if you dont wanna try another tach, then try another dizzy.

 

i already tried another tach

 

OK guys it ended up being a lose wire(blue) inside the dizzy!!
