Rev Counter Not Working

[jonno1272 0]

Hi all, I haven't got a haynes manual but I am led to believe wire 112 controls the rev counter, what colour is it and where does it run from and to? Does anyone have a diagram? Checked fuse etc and wires on coil all attached

I thought it was just a wore to the coil and an earth? Are you earths on the gearbox ok?

yep, wire 112 from the coil, a light green shielded wire.

Is it a positive wire can I test it and where does it go from the coil

[welshpug 1,629]

it goes to the rev counter, its a signal wire.

still no joy

The small blue connector with 3 wires on the back of the rev counter has power to two of the wires (white and grey) but not to the green?

[welshpug 1,629]

you wont have power to it, its a signal wire.

Surely if I have power to the other two the rev counter should work (I have even plugged in another set of clocks to eliminate the rev counter itself) or could it be the signal wire?

Green wire and grey wire on the right of coil, are they the rev counter wires? The left side has a yellow wire and another green wire
