Tachometer (rev counter) (MIU 2)

Power for the main instrument display panel is supplied from fuse 17 to pin 55 of the main instrument display panel's control module. The control pulses needed by the control module in order to control the rev counter are obtained from the engine management system on pin 6.

The signal is a square wave which varies periodically between battery positive and 0 V, twice per revolution for 4-cylinder and three times per revolution for 6-cylinder engines.
