Hi Glenn,

the switch appears to bypass the local unit and send the pulses to the small
cannon connector under the switch....judging by the wiring...no schematic.
The original connector to the engine analyzer cannon plug is interrupted by
the kit i.e., the pulses go into the new tach and out again to the original
sensor connection. Then, the tach only requires gnd and 24 VDC. There is a
seperate pair for the light that should go to the instrument panel's
lighting circuit.

You have to cut a 1.5 inch hole for the cannon connector on the bottom of
the tach that goes through the engine cover. A cannon plug plugs onto the
tach from inside the engine compartment.

The radio rack came from Kasscar....they're in stock there.
