Help if you can please.
I have the 3.2 ECU and a tach from a similar 911 for my conversion. I can pin out all the ECU wires. I know the tach will need to use the black/violet for the signal. I plan to splice into the existing black violet already in the original loom heading for the old tach. My question concerns the other black wire coming from the ECU to the tach. If it is there to provide +12v, then I can just plug in the original +12V and ground wires already under the dash for the original tach. But perhaps this tach or the ECU really wants to see that particular black wire from the ECU. In that case I need to run it up to the dash and tape off the 12V wire for the old tach.
I would like to make this simple, and to me reusing original wires makes sense where possible. I have read the threads but not seen an answer to this. My approach to wiring this is more integrative than most people's approaches, so I am not just making cross over 14 pin swaps. In my car the relay shelf is gone.
Thanks much, and I hope you can help.
