I guess i got a Plug n play shift Lite.
two wires the clip together.
now can i cut the set of wires and splice em aswell?
would the tach light not be working cus i got 67 bulbs when i was supposed to get 1076?
diffrences is two prongs on bottom(1076) and 1 prong on the other?
your wires might be loose. did you just wire this up, or have you had it done for a while? did you remember to cut the wires behind the tach itself? and yes you can splice it. i used speaker wire to splice mine.

im just using the shift light tacks hidden

ok i can respect that
but still, kinda ghetto
you know you can buy just the shift light it up to hit at a certain rpm instead of hiding the big bulky tach

ya idk it was cheap. but it was supposed to be working?
anyways. ok so now my tach is going opposite of the dimmer (off when at max bright)
is it supposed to do that? it was to the other wire and not dimming or anything so i changed to the other far side now its opposite.
y isnt my light working, when splicing can i eliminate the plug n play clip
????
everything else is fine?
y arnt i getting power to it

i'm not too sure about bypassing the black plug i think you should still use it. but splice in between the light and tach, maybe that'll work? i'm not too sure. i've never done that before.

Did you make good contact with the splicing? Did you cut the looped wires in the back? The tach signal goes to the negative side of the coil.

got the tach signal already...
now for the splices there all good.
even tried wire to wire for comfirmation
do you know if the plug is a must or not?
