What the WUQ 9117 Tachometer Adapter is
The WUQ 9117 Tachometer Adapter is a plug-in module that bridges standard ignition tachometers and RPM-activated modules to distributorless or coil-over-plug ignition systems. It enables Auto Meter gauges, shift lights, and controller modules to function where no factory tachometer output signal is present.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
This adapter suits technicians and enthusiasts installing Auto Meter tachometers, Pro-Shift Lite units, or digital shift systems on vehicles with distributorless ignitions, Supermag, or Vertex magneto applications. It does not suit installations that require wireless connectivity, smart home automation protocols, or generic OBD-II signal translation for non-Auto Meter devices.
Capacity and headroom: what it handles
The module handles signal conversion for standard ignition tachometers and RPM-activated modules across compatible magneto and coil-over-plug platforms. It runs out when the vehicle ignition architecture falls outside the supported distributorless or magneto types, or when the target gauge is not an Auto Meter standard ignition or Pro-Shift system.
