Clio mk1 1996 oasis - How to install rev counter

Unread post by Joetcliooasis »

I have bought a aftermarket rev counter and I am having trouble finding a signal cable. Where am I supposed to connect it to?

Without knowing much about this vehicle:

The typical place would be the coil lead (the low voltage one obviously!)

If you do not have the traditional coil and leads arrangement and have a coil pack, its going to be a bit more difficult. You may get a signal from one of the connectors on the coil pack, but I cannot be sure to be honest.


Bit late, but I wonder if it would be easier to simply fit an instrument panel from a tach equipped Clio model instead, I'd guess it would plug straight in (in most cases)
