Jim -

The Autometer Tach must be powered for it to return to 0 RPM, Make sure
you have 
it connected correctly and that should work. I have one in my car
that does the 
same thing if power it cut off before the tach settles, hit the
power again and 
it pops back to 0 Rpm.

>From Autometer as well -

Your Auto
Meter tachometer should go to Zero when powered on with the engine 
off. *See
Shift-Lite Tach exceptions below.    

>Please keep in mind that the
tachometer does not necessarily go to, or stay at 
>Zero when the power is
off. If it does not go to zero with power on, engine off, 
>please verify your
power and ground connections and available voltage. If the

visit the Ask A Question or Contact Us pages to communicate

Department representative.

RE: [Tigers] Auto Meter tach for  Tiger


Jim,
Have you received a definitive
answer to your  question? 

I have the same issue I am wondering how to zero
the needle  after replacing
the original indicator needle with the Smiths 
needle.

Thanks in advance
Ross

Hello all,
Got the final parts in and started final assy.  of tach.

People have advised
me to apply  12 VDC to the tach to  establish "0"  RPM
point.

Try as I might,
on the positive and  negative terminals on the back of the
tach, I get no
movement (or pressure  in either direction).

Can anybody suggest anything?
What am I  overlooking or doing wrong?

Best regards,


Jim  Armstrong
