Questions about hooking up a Isspro tach

Hello everyone:

I have an Isspro tach R8503 with 3 wires in the back: black, white and red, plus the light bulb. The tach provision plug on my '92 has the following wires (info. taken from the FSM, I have not actually gotten to the plug yet):
Black - to the headlamp switch ground
Orange - to a "node" of other switches
Red - to turn signal flasher
Grey/Light Blue - to SBEC
Well, what to connect to what? And where do you get "juice" conveniently for the bulb?

Thanks to all for any info.

I got these from the isspro tech manager. Not sure if they pertain to yours. Use at own risk.

You are welcome. I have not hooked mine up yet in the 93. To cold. I got the EV style 4 k tach for that truck. I have the R8503 in my 89. I like it.

I am installing a Autometer Trans. Temp Gauge. I know its not a tach, but can I just wire plug to this factory tack harness?? like this:
Black= ground for light and gauge ground both.
Orange= +12 v lighting
Black(note 1)= switched 12v
Grey/lt.blue= leave empty, attach wire from probe to sender on gauge.

Do you have the model number of the Isspro 4K tach?

Thanks,
