RVC type tachometer doesn't work

Post by Slawo2000 »

Hi
I have installed EDIS ignition and MJLJ in my FSO Polonez (equipped with Fiat DOHC engine). The system works fine, but I have a problem with tachometer (RVC type). I bought tacho drive from triggerwheels, but it doesn’t work – the rev needle shows zero all the time. When I take signal directly from one coil, the rev counter shows half of the correct rev speed. Interestingly, that when I connect coil line to tacho through diode it seems, that it kills signal completely. I tried also pin 11 from EDIS, but no success either. Have somebody had similar problem?
