Did u put it in 4 cyl mode? What pin # and color of plug on the PCM did u tap into for the tach signal?

The Diagram features an old style MSD box, I have the new digital one. I called MSD and they sent me this diagram. They said the wireing is the same.

I put it on MODE 1 which is for LS1 induvidual coils ignition.

Isnt that diagram for an rpm activated switch, which has differnt wiring than the window switch? I am sure that there is at least one extra wire on the window switch that is used to close the circuit. I am in a similar situation, but havnt hooked up my window switch yet becuase I dont know how to. BTW, I have the switch which requires the pills so it too is may different than the digital.

nah, don't use mode one. It's a misprint I guess. LS1's put out a 4 cyl tach signal from the PCM to the tach guage. How exactly does it work, it just does. Like a posi-trak on a Plymouth. It just does! lol jk

so is my wireing correct?

Looks correct.

What about the wiring for a regular pill activated window switch? What are the differances, and how should I go about wiring mine up?


Thanks

I set it at cyl 4 and still nothing. :(

Uhm, one more quick ?. Do u have a NX or NOS kit. It's NOS in the pic but that doesn't mean u have one. I forget if the yellow is switched ground or power. You need to have the switched ground wire to trip your relay.

I thought the fuel switch was to be put in series with the window switch. Not in series with the solenoids?

Ed Blown Vert Nov 23, 2004 11:12 PM

The fuel switch can't handle the current of the solenoids. Put it inline with the window switch. In fact, the FPSS might be bad now.
