How can you quickly test a DOHC tach? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hi there. I found a couple threads on tach installs and what not, but nothing on troubleshooting. I have purchased a JDM cluster for the purpose of using with my new SR. I swapped it into my SOHC cluster and was surprised when it didn't work. I put the tach back into the JDM cluster and plugged it in and it still didn't work.

Am I correct when I say that the tach should work in either cluster without modification? Is there a way to easily troubleshoot or test the tach just to confirm that it works?

I purchased this part locally and if it is bad I want to get ahold of the guy ASAP. Thanks in advance for your knowledge.
