i'd be thinking, positive, ground and the negative side of the coil?
all accords were 4cyl right? cause if it came from a six it probably won't work
try using the search up the top, theres been heaps of posts about wiring up tacho's from other cars and aftermarket ones etc |

Sorry can't help with the wiring just thought I'd let you know if the tacho did come out of a six you can get them recalibrated to a four. I got my tacho out of a 6 cylinder ford cortina which I had recalibrated and fitted it where the clock was in my TD. It had only 2 wires though, red and black.
