Shift light help
I bough an MSD shift light. It has 3 wires. 1 black for ground, 1 red for power. and 1 green to hook it up to a signal. I have an 98 EK ~ EX and I am wondering which wire and were would I splice into for the tach signal to make the shift light work.
I did a test and the light does work. Thnxs

if you hook just a shift light to that its either not gonna work or it will be on all the time. you need an rpm activated switch. kinda like an ignition switch that turns power on at a given rpm.
