VDO tachs and dip switches

[yeungmicah]

Hi there.
Hopefully a simple one.
I’m replacing old analog tachs with newer 2nd hand vdo gauges that don’t have dip switches built in but do have an 8 station dip switch module
I have 6bta 159 tooth flywheels and magnetic pickups.

The question is, I see on the site the beede tach dip switch settings but
1. Is this the same for the VDO tach?
2. Can I use the 8 station dip switch module or do I need the 10 station dip switch module as per the sbmar site?

Thanks

Every tach design/adjustment mechanism is DIFFERENT………… Some tachs don’t even have any provisions for adjustment.

No clue what you bought of if it is even compatible with your engine/mag pick-up.
