Tachometer Wiring

I am trying to wire a Ryca Tachometer to my 2013 S40.
How can I tell which terminal on the coil is negative?
I have a cheap multi meter but I have never used it before.
Which wire terminal on the horn is hot?

On the Savage....red is hot before the ignition switch, orange is hot after the switch. Orange with a stripe goes through a switch and will only have power if the switch is on. Other colors indicate the power being distributed to lights, ign. etc.
For the coil the orange/white is the power....the black/yellow is from the ignition module and is what the tach should be connected to.
Here is a link to the wiring diagrams so you can search the colors and what they do.

Dave,
Thank You Very Much!
I had everything hooked up as you posted.
I will turn the power on and start it up.
Everything works as advertised.

Rule of thumb:
Any wire with a white tracer comes out of a switch.

Here's the link to my post on installing the RYCA tach on a stock S40.
It has a picture showing the tach wires connected to the coil.

Todd,
I did see your post quite awhile ago and couldn't find it when I was looking for it this morning.
Now I saved your wiring pic.
I really admire the bracket that you made to hold the tachometer.

Thanks, Kenny
I like working with aluminum stock from the hardware store because it
doesn't require special tools or machinery to make a lot of things.
A hacksaw, drill, and a file will suffice for small projects.
You can even polish it to a mirror finish if the job calls for that.
