Hi all,

I'm in need of a little bit of help!

I was trying to install a coupe tacho into my 84 ute on the weekend (replacing the standard clock) and I came across a problem when I started looking for the wiring.

I have printed off all the previous threads on this topic so I knew I had to look for the black wire with the white tracer that is taped up in the harness and all you have to do is unplug them and plug the tacho in! Pretty simple one would think...not so!

I found the B&W wire taped up to the harness but there was only a female end there, no male in sight. Not only that but it seems that Datsun/Nissan decided to change all of the connectors in the later cars to round ones instead of flat spade type which isn't a real issue just annoying.

My issue is not knowing what wire to put where, do I plug the male connector from the tacho into the existing connector and run a new wire for the other (where do I run it to)? I know it has to be a loop arrangement so I thought having an open end to the B&W wire sitting there would have been an issue but obviously not.

Has anyone else come across this problem with one of the later utes? If so how did you fix it?

Any help/advice appreciated.

Thanks
