    After switching my ecu, I now get no revs on my clocks. There is one wire from the tach unit that I spliced into for my old ecu, this wire isn't connected now, have tried all the spares from the new ecu and re connected it again to itself as before the whole ms malarky. Or could it be something in the fusebox or at the clocks itself?

    Has the ecu even got anything to do with the clocks, as obviously it gets a feed for its own dials on tuner studio etc.

    Taken from smudges thread.

    To integrate the coilpack with your MK2/MK1 rev counter you will need to bridge the two trigger wires (coil pack pins 1 and 3) but will need to install diodes and a zenor diode so that the signal will only go to the clocks and not back to the wrong bank of the coil. See the EDIS setup for more detail below with circuit diagram.

    I take it this is what I need to do as I'm running wasted spark.
