Hey guys,
Im new to this site and new to Trojan boats. I recently bought an F-26 with the flybridge, and I absolutely love it! I have done some restoration on some of the teak and wood trim in the cabin. I have now turned my attention to figuring out with the heck the tach's (one on the flybridge and the other in the pilothouse) are not working. I have poured over my original owners manual to figure out where the tach wires are hooked on to the engine.
I appreciate the help in advance.

The tach wires should be hooked up to the condenser. You can see the red and black wire attached to the condenser in the picture below.

I'll start here. My other question would be is the a secondary wire coming down from the flybridge as well or are they connected to the same wire?
