Where is the car's tachometer located?
1 Answers
The car's tachometer is installed inside the instrument panel, symmetrically placed alongside the speedometer. The tachometer operates based on magnetic principles, receiving pulse signals generated when the primary current in the ignition coil is interrupted, and converting this signal into a displayable rotational speed value. The tachometer's numbers range from 1 to 8, with the indicated number multiplied by 1000 representing the engine's RPM. The tachometer visually displays the engine's rotational speed under various operating conditions, allowing the driver to always be aware of the engine's performance, determine the optimal shifting time to coordinate with the gear and throttle position, maintain the best working condition, reduce fuel consumption, and extend the engine's lifespan.
