i have a NON tach gauge cluster right now, if I pull it out and drop in a cluster WITH a tach, will everything work or do I need to run some new wires or what nots?

95 S10 Blazer, 2wd, 4.3 Vortec

Thanks in advance

 

i'd say you'll have to run some wires. might be better off to go get one of those autometer tachs instead.

 

i was afraid someone was going to say that...

i hate the way those things look!! that's why i was hoping to keep it stock looking with a factory cluster w/tach instead, i have enough accessories with my Sirius, GPS, MP3, Phone, Accessory Lights mounted to my dash that another thing mounted to it might make it fall off its mounts!

if anyone has anything different, let me know, if not i'm going to have to go with the autometer tach cause I can't stand driving without know what my motor is doing!

Thanks leeclark!

 

The '95 may be iffy, but I'd give it a try. You may be surprised. I believe it would depend on what ECM setup you have. The full OBD2 *should* be plug and play, but I do not know about the OBD1 or OBD1.5 setup...

 

The wires are not there in anything 1982 (83 for blazers) to 1996.

From 96-99 you have to have a cluster from the exact year with the exact options for it to work (1998 with no tach 4 cyl and 5 speed only to a 1998 with tach 4 cyl 5 speed)

2000-2004 you just swap any cluster from any of those years and it will work.

I think 94 was the last year for the OBD1 in 2nd gens but aint 100% positive.

 

I'd drop one with a tach in it just to see if it works. The cluster I have in my 96 came out of a 97 Bravada and works perfectly. It's worth a try.

 

yeah it sounds like its worth the try.... maybe i can sell it on craigslist if it don't work out.....

thanks for the help guys, i'll post up what I find if it ever stops this crap weather so I can walk around out there and get one!

Thanks Again!
