    Where's the Best Place to Grab an RPM Signal?

    I'm getting ready to install a shift light. I'm hoping there's a pin on the back of the cluster I can use for the rpm signal. Anyone know?
    Thanks

    Edit: 24v engine

        The 24v engines have individual coils, won't that mess me up?

          Hhhhmm not sure. Didnt see the "S50'd" at the bottom of the sig.
          There is a tach output wire at the ECU. Check a ETM and find the right wire/pin at the ecu.

            Black wire in blue connector behind cluster, or ECM, or diagnostic connector.
