DESCRIPTION:
This compact and easy to install module will allow you to easily adapt AutoMeter tachometers and shift lights and many other aftermarket RPM-based devices on your alternator-equipped diesel or non-standard ignition gasoline engine. Equipped with a sensor which is mounted to the alternator casing, a one time setup calibration is accomplished via push button interface on the module to synchronize the alternator signal with engine crank RPM. Perfect for diesel performance applications looking to add a tachometer or upgrade from factory equipment and a great problem solver for engine swap builds in need of working instruments. Pair it with AutoMeter's low-rev tachometer models to complete your diesel-specific gauge installation.

Sensor works fine, easy to install.
Had to use a 1K pull up resistor for the adapter to work with a VDO tachometer gauge. A circuit diagram of the adapter o/p circuitry would have been helpful.

QUESTIONS:
I this installed on my 1983 K5 Blazer, 6.2 diesel. But is reading way high, even on the highest 6 adjustment. It is showing 1200-1300rpm at idle, instead of 600-650rpm that is actual idle. Can it be adjusted outside the dash control calibration?

I have a 3 3/8 Sport Comp tach and am trying to use it with my 81 VW 1.6 diesel. I have this 9112 diesel tach adapter, I have followed the instructions for calibration, but the green light just blinks and the tach needle is frozen, power and ground good.
For assistance please give our tech support a call at 866-248-6356.

I've installed this device on a VW 1.9TDI engine. Connected a generic tachometer for a 4-cyl gas engine (used it in another car, 100% works with a standard 4-cyl analog engine). After calibration, it indicates 2000 instead of 1000 rpm. Why?
You will need to follow the calibration instructions on this unit in order to have the tachometer read properly. You will also want to keep in mind that the tachometer will need to be set for a 8cyl motor (4PPR). For further assistance please give us a call at 866-248-6356.

Will this unit also work with a permanent magnet generator vs alternator?
This will only work with an alternator.

What is required to re-calibrate the AUTOMETER DIESEL TACH ADAPTER_2650-1885, if the readings differs between the Test Unit (Monarch PT99) and Tach Adapter?
There is no recalibration of this adapter that can be done by the user. If after following the instructions it is not working correctly, contact Tech Support at 866-248-6357.

Do you have to use one of your tachometers with this or can I use a different brand along with it.
Thank you for contacting us. We can only guarantee functionality and provide if you use an AutoMeter tachometer. The 9112 creates a 0-12V square wave which should technically function with other aftermarket tachometers designed for standard/electronic ignitions.
