The wire has to be there.<\/p>\n<p>And in the worst case scenario, you&#8217;re going to have to run your own wire from the tach to however you&#8217;re going to read it whether it&#8217;s the alternator or the sensor on the bottom.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what kind of truck you have but I think on most of the trucks the wiring harness comes out on the right side and there&#8217;s a plug there and inside of that harness the tach wire is somewhere in there. You have to look through a wiring diagram to see which wire it is but you could jump it there if you had to.<\/p>\n<p>I know it&#8217;s a pain in the you know what and maybe you&#8217;ll have to hire somebody to do it, but of all the problems you have it&#8217;s really not that big and it shouldn&#8217;t cost you much, even if you have to pay someone to fix that up for you, unfortunately.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n\t\tn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\n\t\tn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n\t\tt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n\t\tdocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n\tfbq('dataProcessingOptions', []);\n\tfbq('init', '1812746315680142'); \/\/ Insert your pixel ID here.\n\t\t\t\tfbq('track', 'PageView');\n\t\t<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruckersreport.com\/truckingindustryforum\/threads\/359-tach-signal-wire.2517919\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The thing is though the wiring should already be there.
