yes the classic range rover gets its tachometer reading from
the alternator, so recheck, opencircuit in wires? or bad alt?
did the tach work before you replaced the alt?

i think there is somthing wrong internaly with that alt
or its not the right one for your rover.
three wires on the back right?
thick cable, small 8mm and one spaid connector?
is this a after market alt?
magareli (yes i spelled it wrong) alt?
