Hooking up Zthe Tach....

Hey guys... I finally broke down and bought a new tach... However our friends at Autometer provide DIStructions in Spanish, French, Chinese and Dutch.... but no English! There are three wires coming out of the tach. Red, Green, Black. I assume...

Red= Hot
Green= negative side of the trailing coil (closest to the driver)
Black = Ground

Does that sound right?

Yeah you are correct but what Model TACH did you buy...I have a Silver Comp I had to wire 4 wires up...

Red = Hot
White = Lights
Green = Neg side of Coil
Black = Ground

It works like a beauty!
