I'm trying to install a tach on my sentra, I checked out the site that explains how to install it on a 200sx, but I cant find the blue wire with the orange strip to connect the green wire to. Is there another wire I can run the green wire to?

This is what i did. Make sure your connections are good or else your tach signal will be weak and believe me it sucksNismo1997 said:red-power, put it to something that only has power when the key is turned, black-neg, any ground. white-lights you can either hook it upto your headlights or your dimmer, green-there is a green wire coming off the distribator just tap into that
yap, i did it like over a year and a half ago and ive had no problems whatsoever.jer28 said:I also reccomend using the wire they are talking about at the distributor (coil negative). I tried to use the one coming from the ecu but it did not work on my car. Just be sure to tape up the connection good to try and keep out corrosion.
is yoru tach calibrated for a 4 cyl car? The tach I had in my b14 was calibarted for a v-8, and you cut a wire loop for a v-6 or anther wire loop for a 4 cyl.SteppinRazor said:I tapped into the green distributor wire and the tach reads the rpms but the reading is wrong...my mechanic siad that im idling at around 750 but the tach says 1400....any reason why..maybe defected tach of the wire im using..?!?!?!
I have a sunpro tach and it is set to the 4 cyl setting as per the instructions. The reading is still off by about 700 rpms though?xbrandonx said:is yoru tach calibrated for a 4 cyl car?
