The grounds,and plus cables are connected from one instrument to the next. If you disconnected one, it could or is causing problems elsewhere.
I think in the how- to section is a threat with alot of pics from the wiring.

The other thing that is quite likely is that in messing around back there, you popped the two bulb holders for the tach out of their sockets. It's really easy to do, they don't fit in very snugly, just a press fit.
