Red = key on power supply
Black = common chassis ground
White = dash lighting power
Green = tachometer signal for standard or electronic ignitions
Yellow = used only on Internal Coil Magneto tachometers as the signal wire
Twin Black = (looks like a lamp cord) is used on External Coil Magneto tachometers that use an inductive pick up (#5210)
Gray = for tachometers that use a Hi/Lo shift light. When grounded, Lo shift light point is active. When ungrounded, Hi shift light point is active.
Blue = used on Playback tachometers to start recording (see playback tachometer instructions)

Now do u have stock ignition or aftermarket..........

Red = key on power supply -----> positiive side of battery
Black = common chassis ground -----> negative side of battery
White = dash lighting power -----> cig lighter
Green = tachometer signal for standard or electronic ignitions -----> black wire on ignition coil
Yellow = used only on Internal Coil Magneto tachometers as the signal wire
Twin Black = (looks like a lamp cord) is used on External Coil Magneto tachometers that use an inductive pick up (#5210)
