Hey, former towman and current alarm installer here. Do you tow, or is a customer's truck?

The wire is actually behind the fusebox, not behind the emergency brake.

Unbolt the fuse box (4x 10mm bolts), tug the box out a bit, and you'll see a handful of wires there. The ends of the wires are just capped off with shrink tubing---they are NOT connected to anything.

Tach is the light GREEN / WHITE wire.

The tach signal on the '05-up Ford Diesels is tricky, and it doesn't sucessfully work with all remote starters----- what brand and model are you installing?
