Guess what, I have an 91 8v with motometer clocks on which the rev counter and MFA doent work. I have tried new clocks, changing the voltage stabiliser, removing the fuse for a while etc etc but they still dont work. Where do they connect to the distributor or get the engine pulses? Is there any connections in the engine bay I could check. Its really staring to p iss me off.
I had same thing when I first got my GTi. Couldnt get them to work for love nor money Ended up with new clocks. Few sets of clocks on ebay if I remember right. Not sure if Motometer or not.
Dont think so. I bought a set that were also apparently working, fitted them and exactly the same is happening. Dont think its the clocks which is why I wondered about where the rev counter gets its signals from. I am useless at the electrical side of cars. Edited by: coullstar
I think the rev counter picks up its signal direct from the coil so you could clean all the LT connections on the coil and cross your fingers
