I have purchased a instrument cluster with the tachometer from a 1987 Ford Ranger that had the 2.9L. For $10, what the heck!
I have installed the cluster into my 1983 Ranger. However, I have been unable to get the tach to work. I wired it in just like the 1987 wiring diagram.
It is wired from pin 4 from the computer with the resistor in the wiring. It is then wired into the green wire from the coil. From there, it goes to the instrument cluster. There is also a ground wire from the cluster to a ground near the coil. This has all been done.
I have not rewired from the Amp gauge to the battery light yet. Does anyone know if this might be why the tachometer is not working.
Any ideas.....
