Default New stereo -- now tack does not work

Are any of the stock stereo wires needed for the tach to work.

I just finished my stereo upgrade and I noticed that my tach does not work.
All of the other gauges work.

I also installed chrome gauge bezels and remove the gauge cluster at the same time.

Is the tach wiring a part of the wiring harness connected to the gauge cluster?

I plugged all of the wires in and all of the other gauges are working, maybe I missed plugging one back in.

Any help would be appreciated.


:sad: :nonod:

Not related to stereo install.

2 plugs in instrument cluster if you have HUD. The one in the back is the one to check. Make sure it is all the way in. Press on the top part (grey area) and the bottom (not covered by the grey cover).
