Default AutoGage Tach wires

searched and did not find.. got an autogage 10 rev tac for free.. ive had 1 before im just tryin to remember where these wires went. i know blacks ground.. im pretty sure red just goes to a fuse that doesnt have constant power.. does anybody know what wire is the parking light wire so i can wire the white one up 2 it so the light isnt on all the time? and if anybody knows what wire i tap the green on into on the distributor it would be very thankful for a reply.. by the way merry Xmas!

Black = Ground
Red = Power
White = dimmer switch
Green = Blue wire behind gauge cluster, blue on the dizzy, or A21 (OBD1)

Next time search for FAQ

you use the green wire and tap that wire into the blue wire coming off the distributer.

you use the white wie to tap into any light source that will come on when your head lights or on,*note dont use you cigarret lighter like i did,know i have no dash lights and no heater/air controll lights,bad times
