Default Msd Window switch

Well I just installed my nx wet kit and I can't get my window switch to activate the system. I've bypassed my fpss and still no results and finally bypassed the window switch and the system would finally activate. I've double checked the wiring and found no problems. I was wondering if the tach signal is to weak to activate the switch. I've spliced into ecm for the tach wire. Any help would be greatly appreciated...

I had the same problem all of last year with mine. Make sure if it's the digital to put it in 4 cyl mode. If not, I would go with a different window switch. IMHO those digital MSD's are junk unless you can pull the signal from a box.

I had the same problem with the MSD box. IMHO it's junk. Get yourself one of these bad boys. Awesome and easy install.
