| James...the round 'bullet' is the 'signal' terminal from
the (-) side of the coil. The flat spade is the V+ terminal.
Just 'switiching' V+ will not activate the integrated ckt.
on the board inside the tach. You need full power to V+
and ground with a separate 'signal' input to trigger the 
ckt. that drives the meter.
