autometer swap problems
I have a 72 & i just did the autometer swap. the Phanton Tach & Speedo. looks great but now my car won't run. does anybody know about using the factory harness for the autometers? or jumpers ? or something ?
I can hook up the old tach & it runs like b4.
I need help !!!!! this is my daily driver !!!!!

Re: autometer swap problems
You'll be glad that this problem is an easy fix. The tach in your datsun is wired different than the autometer tach. If you look at the input wire, it doesn't go into the tach, but just makes a loop. By putting in the autometer tach, you didnt' complete the loop, therefore not letting the coil get power. Jumper the two wires that go to the coil in the connector that plugged into your old tach, and the car will run.
