Rev Counter Wiring


Best Answer DamoMini , 17 May 2020 - 03:42 PM

Ignore the red blue and just connect the white black to the negative terminal on the coil.

I connected the green to the spare input/feed terminal of the voltage stabilizer inside the binnacle. Go to the full post

https://www.caigauge...55-iss2-279.pdf

with reference to that, I have the following:

Brown/Slate - ignore wire tape up
Red/white - connect to dash light positive
Black - connect to a ground/negative terminal

red/blue
OR        - not sure what is alternator 'W' terminal - or does this just goto negative coil terminal ?
white/black

Green - Switched ignition positive (via 3A fuse) - not sure which colour wire from ignition barrel this should connect too - is it the brown one ?

cheers DamoMIni for confiming that, will try that this week
did you use an inline fuse(3A) between voltage stabilizer and rev counter or is that not needed?

I didn’t but it’s probably best to (a) protect the tach and (b) protect whatever else is on the same circuit as the tach from losing power if the tach shorts.
