Hey, i need help bad. i just got a monsta tacho for my V6 Series 1 VN but dunno where to put the green signal wire....... i tried the broun wire near the strut tower... i tried the tach wire behind the dash..... nothing seems to work.... i no the tacho does cos i put it in my sis's car to test it. i have no idea and am about to put the first tacho into space ever. lol all help appreciated alot
Off the top of my head I couldn't tell you, but there is definately other threads on this forum with all the information you need. Have a click around and see what you can turn up.
yea i was a bit cut when the nothing i tried worked hmmmmm it worked in my sis's car and i looked at pretty much all the topics (even the ones not related to my problem) and nothing came up so HEEEEEELLLLPPP hmmm im confused i hate wiring stuff in its all ways a pain in the A**E
nah just told me what i already knew lol i put guages in all the time and stereo's its a piece of cake to me which is why this tacho thing is pi**ing me off
nup didnt work. i had my main wiring loom (50 % of car wiring) redone not long ago. is it possible that it wasnt donew properly and it may be causing this problem??
hi ok your problem is that the vns have a .5 volt signal for the tacho the monsta tachs use a 12volt signal! im sure that was the voltages. there are 2 ways around this but neather one you are going to like
1. get a .5 volt rated tach and then join it up to the brown wire everyone is telling you to
2. go get a signal amp and run the brown wire into that and then the green wire out to your tach
I had the same problem so just left the factory tacho in there
would another workaround be to open up the coil pack and find the power input for them or would that just give one constant output? not too familiar with coilpacks im new to this whole cars have computers thingy
