No Tach in 99 ranger...Will a 2001 cluster w/ a tach plug in and work?
Yep, selling my old guages on ebay. I got a question from a guy who has a 99' Ranger with no Tach. He is wanting to know if my guages (with a tach.) will plug in and work?
I dont know for sure, but i do remeber, John Moorhead put a Sport Track Cluster in his truck, and it didnt have a tach. But i dont know if he had to wire it in or if it just plugged right into the old harness.
Thanks

do you just unplug the old one and plugin the new one, everything works (fuel, temp, speedo, tach) without any other wiring?

It should be mentioned, however, that you will need to make sure the odometer is correct after the swap. I chose to swap the speedometer/odometer guts between the two clusters. The problem in doing that is you have to remove and then reinstall the speedometer needle which can be a little bit of a pain to get right. I drove down the road with a GPS receiver and pressed the needle on to match what the GPS said. Other than the odometer thing, yea, its a clean swap.
Just thought I should elaborate a little...
