a new problem has occured: Today after I had done the wiring for the park lights/turn signals I wanted to start my truck to see if it all works correctly.
When I turn the key to the first position ("on") it cranks already. Is it a problem with the switch or with the wiring?
The next thing is the wiring of the tacho. I have a gauge cluster with factory tacho. I got a new harness for that thing as the old one had been cut off and ripped out. So I don't know where it connects to the main harness. My wiring diagrams doesn't show any tacho. It has to plugs and one furcated cable lug. Can anyone provide pics or has a wiring diagramm which shows that?
Greetings
Joern
