roboboyo Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Ok Guys How easy is it to wire a rev counter speedo to my 3 warning lighted, no rev countered finesse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Assuming petrol engined, hook up to pin 4 on the ecu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 some are plug and play... so always worth a try before adding an extra wire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roboboyo Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 some are plug and play... so always worth a try before adding an extra wire... cheers pal The thought of going near the ecu scares me, Im not too hot on electrics tbh, was hoping it was plug and play, my current speedo has 2 plugs, either side of the speedo plug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strikey Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 I wasn't great either but I did it on mine took about 20 minutes and most of that was drilling the rivet holding in the ecu. If your car has a light that has a plug on it that your car doesn't even have in my case it was the ABS i removed the pin from the wire and placed it into the rev counter pin and the wire was changed to pin 4 on the ecu saves a lot of work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor2006 Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 some are plug and play... so always worth a try before adding an extra wire... +1 If you have digital dials which for a finesse im assuming you do you should be able to just get some digital dials with a rev counter and plug in, i'd be surprised if ford didnt run that wire even though its not needed considering how many other bits of wiring are fitted that arent always used. Try that first and if no luck approach the fitting a wire, its not that difficult, I had to do it for speedo signal when I converted my dials to digital, just used a bit of speaker wire, easily run up behind the dash and along to the rear of the dials where you can hook it to the black plug that goes into the back of dials.

Danzetec Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 The two finesses I've had are already wired for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
