Good evening, I did the cluster swap but the tach doesn't work..
Of course I never printed out from the other site, so if anyone knows or has the pics to get this working would be just fantastic!
Thanks E

is yours carb or fuel injected?

Edit: handy PDFs from Interior section I used for my swap ... before everything went wrong, then I had to wing it lol

Did you check that little plug? on the firewall?

lol, i had one of my friends over to help with my swap (someone with smaller hands than mine to reattach the speedo cable lol) he asked why i was plugging them together, he couldnt get his head around the ghettoness of "plug these two wires that are just chilling here together and *poof* tach signal"

for what its worth mine didn't work right off the rip either ... it just kinda sat there for like 30 seconds .... I guess the truck had to poke it a few times to figure out what it was lol

Plug on the firewall?? in the engine compt or behind the cluster?
And what plugs into "that" plug?
I would think that it has something to do with the ground (-) side of the coil..

if you have to ask where then that is deffinetly your problem ... check the pdf's there are pics.

on the passenger side of the firewall in the engine compartment there are two random wires hanging out of the harness ... plug them into each other. Profit.

Mine was a little tight to get them together, but it worked.

I had to run a wire to the ignition coil on mine as I have no plugs on the firewall. thats in the pdf as well.
