I just fired the engine for the first time and all my gauges work great except my factory tach. Any ideas? I plugged in my Tech 2 and the only codes that showed up were P0650 (because Im not using a check engine light) and P0654 Engine speed output Circuit.
was the pcm tuned for it?
I had to solder in a 680 ohm resistor to get mine to work.
12v+

680 ohm resistor

|----------------------------------->pin10 from pcm
|----------------------------------->tach
if his definition of doesn't work means no movement, then it's not the pcm and pcm's aren't tuned for it.
however, the pcm can be tuned for needle adjustment.
no movement is probably wiring or in very rare cases, a faulty pcm.
It doesnt move at all.. When I get home today I am going to check my wiring again.Quote:

i agree with LS2Goat, check the resistor thing as that may be your problem. what year pcm do you have?
It is a 04 Blue and Green connectors. I figured I would get a little movement from it.
Took care of it! Thanks alot!!Quote:

mine didn't really work either. i would have to rev it to about 5-6k before it moves. i bought some resistors that i now need to wire inline.
