Default Tach Issue

Ok got everything installed but having a issue with my tach. It seems to get stuck at 3200 RPM and wont go any higher. Then if you slow the rpms it takes a second for it to drop back down to normal.

It seems to work fine up to 3000 rpm, so Im thinking its a problem with the tach but wanted to see if it could be something on my end before calling them.

I bought the wiring harness from the 07 FXDSE to go along with my other mods. It has the connections for a tach however on my stock plug the signal wire was blank. So I ran the signal wire to hole 3 in the ecm.

It seems to be working now. I took it for a long ride and it would slowly go up a little in RPM. It now seems to of broken free and seems to be working normal.

May of just been stuck

Good deal, it's working now.

On my 06 FXD, it is #5 at the ECM.
