I'm starting to go crazy and feeling stupid. I removed my dash and am putting it back together. Everything is working good but I dont remember how the tach hooked up. Ive seen many diagrams online but dont seem to help. Are there any pictures out there of behind the dash? Thanks

Looking at my '85-'86 wiring diagram, Use a yellow wire from the turn fuse, violet wire that comes from the dark green wire at the ignition coil, and a black ground wire.

Ugh so I finally figured it out. I had the ignition hooked up like it would be for base model, not Laredo. I'll take some pictures in case others have ever ran into this.

Good to hear that you figured it out
