5e colin Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 tap into your coil for signal as im not sure if there is a ecu pinout for the gi you could open the ecu and read the pins that way Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EP70-PT Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Basically, you have 3 wires on a tacho, ground, rpm signal and 12v (for the lights if it had any and maybe one more wire for the dimmer), you can get the RPM signal from the ignition coil as said by 5e colin, you can also get it from the RPM signal of your ecu the cool light be easier though, will get a diagram for you Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NewbieLewby Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 behind your clocks there should be a wire with a thick black or brown coating on it, on the right of the middle plug. this is a rev signal. then just earth and power. gotta install mine on my new car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
