where does the rpm-counter (tachometer) get its signal on a 190E 1.8? Is it the alternator perhaps? I'm trying to find out because I want to know if the cable is there from the factory (my car doesn't have a tachometer), and I'd like to know if it's there or not. Is it hard to install a...

I purchased a 1994 C-Class Merecedes C200 Elegance this afternoon, only to realise that the Speedo and also the mileage counter is not working. Please could someone advise me what the problem could be and also how I can try to diagnose and resolve it. Thanks Tony
