Trail Tech M6 X 1.0 TEMP SENSOR PROBE V300-001 - Manual (Page 2)

Connect power wire directly to vehicle 12V battery.
As an alternative to running wires all the way to the battery, it
is possible to tap into the electrical system. It is best to
connect so power is not interrupted by key switch.
Power wire and RPM sensor wire are identical,
except some kits contain a resistor RPM
sensor or extra long power wire.
VAPOR SENSORS INSTALLATION
POWER | TEMPERATURE | RPM
RPM SENSOR INSTALLATION:
RPM SENSOR GROUND WIRE INSTALLATION:
The wire for the RPM sensor is strip wire so that the red lead can be wrapped
around the spark plug wire, and the black lead can go to a ground source.
Stock Ground Wire Colors:
• Yamaha:Black • Polaris:Brown
• Honda:Green • Suzuki:Black w/White Tracer
Note: On a ‘floated’ ground lighting system (e.g. Trail Tech rewound stator with
Trail Tech regulator/rectifier), you must go to frame ground for the tachometer.
A good option for this is to scratch the paint behind a bolt, wrap the negative
lead securely around the bolt (with a ring terminal), then retighten bolt.

OPTION 3:
Coil over plug connection:
If there are two wires and
they are smaller than a
pencil, then the coil is
likely over the top of the
spark plug. Another clear
sign is the presence of a
connector on top of the
spark plug.
Installation for “coil over plug” tachometer connections:
1.

5.
6.
7.
Disconnect coil connector from coil.
Remove terminal guard from inside of connector.
Use a small nail to release the clip that holds the
power wire terminal in the connector.
Remove power terminal from coil connector.
Strip the red tach wire back about 1.5 inches.
Wrap red tach wire around the power terminal,
reinsert terminal, and reconnect to coil.
See below for grounding instructions.

OPTION 2:
Direct connect to coil spade connector:

2.
To install RPM sensor wire, insert the red half of the sensor
wire into the spade connector that connects the stator wire
to the coil.
Proper grounding is important. Read below for instructions.

To install RPM sensor wire, wrap the red half of the sensor
wire around the spark plug wire 5 times.
Proper grounding is important. Read below for instructions.
OPTION 1:

Option 1: RPM sensor wire wrapped around
spark plug wire 5 times.

If tachometer signal is intermittent,
increase number of wraps (12 maximum.)
If tachometer bounces more than
+/-100 RPM, reduce number of wraps
(1 minimum.)
