Smith's "Mini-Tach" Wiring

[Jordon T]

Hi Guys,

I've just bought one of these;



But i'm a little confused with how to wire it into my Toledo.

Its got:
- Black Wire: Ground
- Red Wire: ?
- White Wire: ?
- Yellow Wire: ?

Now i know one of them has to go to the ignition side of the Fusebox, One has to go to the Ne- side of the coil and one has to go to the interior lights. But i don't have a clue which colours go where?

Hope someone can help

I just typed in "smiths mini Tach wiring" on google and it comes up with a "mk1 forum"
I see you tried to get one on there.
If you scroll down a couple of posts down from yours there is a "jacklee"
Who sayes he has one fitted so he should be able to help

Heres a good guess for you.

Red live, black ground, white will probably be neg terminal on coil, yellow will probably be illumination for the tach so take a suitable dash light feed. It could be visa versa with the yellow and white but white is usually ign.

Thanks for the advice guys,

The Yellow wire was the light wire, the Red to the SW and the white to the CB on the coil.

Fitted it this afternoon and it looks ace

Thanks Again
