Tachometer Sensors

   The tach sensor is the most important sensor to get working with your system and is the minimum sensor required for your system to work correctly. Each sensor has a description of what type of vehicle it will work with. If you need additional help selecting which tach sensor would work in your vehicle please check the tach guide or call us direct.

 
 

(ITS-RLC-SPK)
Tachometer Sensor

This tach sensor should be used to plug directly into the digital tach output on an ignition box, diagnostic box, or an ECU. Sensor can be used to amplify or clean up a tach singal when connected directly to a digital tach output. Tach sensor can also be wrapped around a spark plug wire to pick up a tach signal (will not work on a wasted fire system) on a single cylinder 2 cycle engine like a go kart.

(ITS-8918)
Tachometer Sensor (Coil Over System)

This sensor connects to the primary side of coil to get a tach signal. Can be used with a coil over system by attaching it to the wire that fires the coil on a coil over system.

(SS-1000-M)
Tach/RPM/Wheel Speed Sensor
(comes with magnet)
Magnetic digital sensor, comes with magnet. This sensor can be used as a tach sensor by mounting it to the flywheel, the magnet triggers the sensor. Sensor can be used as a driveline speed sensor, RPM sensor, or wheel speed sensor.

(SS-1000)
RPM/Wheel Speed Sensor
(magnet not provided)
Magnetic digital sensor. This sensor can be used as a tach sensor by mounting it to the flywheel, a piece of protruding metal on the flywheel (bolt) will trigger the sensor. Sensor can be used as a driveline speed sensor, RPM sensor, or wheel speed sensor.

(CAB-DI-TACH)
Direct Connect Tach Cable

Direct connect cable for connecting to the tachometer digital output signal on an ignition box or diagnostic port. Only use this direct connect cable if the tach output signal is strong and clean, otherwise start with the RLC-ITS-SPK tach sensor above. Cable has a 3-pin digital input connector with 4 ft. pigtail.
