Tach wire goes from the neg. side of the coil to the relay board(black with purple trace). This is terminal one on the coil. See link to diagram: http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/parts/Elec...lectric_73C.jpg
Your coil is item 6 bottom right regulator plate is bottom left

From there it goes to the regulator plate though the 12 pin connector at the back. Pin number 5: http://bowlsby.net/914/WiringHarnesses/HarnDia_IGN_73-76.jpg

Out the other end of the Regulator plate through the 14 pin connector through pin 7 then the harness to your tach again conncting to terminal 1: http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/parts/Elec...lectric_73A.jpg
Tach is item 22. The 23 on the diagram at the end of the wire is to identify the carryover from the other diagram.

I count 6 connections to cause a problem. Four at the regulator plate alone. Make sure they are all clean. I've had way too many problems caused by a dirty Reg. plate.
