Default How to make the tach work?

Car: 1995 SC300
Motor: JZS147 2jzgte
Issue: Tach does not work, did the r73 cluster bypass, still didn't work, grounded the one wire, did not work, swapped to a 92 cluster with the r109 resistor jumped, did not work, tried the MSD 8920 tach adapter, did not work, ecu has signal, metered out behind the cluster, has signal, any other ideas guys?

Thanks

Vincent

geez, that's all of the fixes I know of too. Even the tach adapter didn't work?

Are you auto or manual?
