    e30 analog clock install

    i have a 1991 318is and i recently got an analog clock. i took out the obc and tried some wires that i was told would work. the best results i got was the clocks light coming on when the rest of the dash lights were orr. could anyone please help me with the wiring?
    thanks

        i tried the write up and the clock didnt do anything. but...if i didnt connect the red/white wire and the brown ground wire then my tach wouldnt work? i did get the clock to light up one time and the needles flickered one time when i had the lights off..?
        im thoroughly confused...
