The rev counter is connected, but I'm not sure for the rev signal, According to the rev counter, the break is at 4200 rpm

Salut


Beau travail pour l'intégration du compte tour
Pour l'ajustement de ton compte tour , regarde si tu n'as pas une vis de rčglage derričre ton compte tour
Sur la Ka comme sur les fiesta post 89 , tu as un allumage jumo statique qui produit deux fois moins d'entrée allumage basse tension qu'un systčme d'allumage classique , j'avais eu le cas sur ma Fiesta Mk2 quand j'ai swappé un moteur de Mk3
Bonne journée et bonne fęte du 1er Mai

Hi, where exactly you get a rev signal?? I know that it runs from ECU to the tacho, but where I can get it? And which cable is the rev signal?? THX

8. Now you need to run a signal wire for the tacho. This will run from the back of the tacho to the ECU wiring harness found in the passenger side foot well. The signal wire is to be attached to either a black/green or black/orange wire found in the ECU. This can vary in Ka's.

I use the black/green but i'm not sure that's the good signal.
The rev counter cut at 4200 rpm.

A idea? (it's a twin coiled)

aXer

It's interesting, because if Ka is twin coiled, the rev counter will show only half of rev, so this isn't the problem I think. Just try the black/orange one. I'm going to fit the rev counter today, so will see.

fordphb

see you tomorrow

aXer

Hi, I've tried to wire the rev counter, but I don't know where I can find the black/green or black/orange wire. Can I find them behind original tachograph?? Have you got some photo, where i can fit it?? THX

AaronsKa

from the ECU for the black green or black orange, mine worked fine up untill 3 1/2 k revs then went spastic till 4 then worked fine till 6k. no crap endura turbo for me anymore!

aXer

yes, but I have there two black/orange wires and no black/green.....it doesn't go to the original tacho??

fordphb

On my KA, the black/green and the black orange are twisted

aXer

änd where I can find them? exactly? have you got photo?? from ECU is running so many wires. photo will be very helpful for me, because I don't understand where i can find them exactly

fordphb

I have no photo, sorry

aXer

so should you tak some photo? I'll be very grateful

fordphb

I go to the garage to make a photo

aXer

thank you very much, you are so kind

fordphb

aXer

oh, thx, I'm going to find it to my garage

aXer

it's interesting, but I don't have there green/black wire, and about 3 orange/black, so I'm confused....

fordphb

On my car, i have many black/orange and only one black/green

aXer

I haven't got black/green, it's imposible I think, I'll checked it tomorow, thanks ford the photos, When was your Ka made?

fordphb

Black/green is on the pin 52 and Black/orange is on pin 26

But i'm not sure that's the good signal.
I will try the white/red ( pin21) or brown/red (pin 22) of the sensor crankshaft position

fordphb

On Ka, black/green can be black, see the pin 52
My Ka is of 10/1998

aXer

and where is the connector whit this pins??? Do you have some scheme with these wires??? or how do you know which wire is for something??

fordphb

The connector and ECU are in the black box on the left (see the first photo)

Sorry my scheme is in French

The pining



The ignition



The crankshaft sensor



and now

aXer

oh thanks, but I wouldn't like to remove the balck box, so i'll tried to find the black/green wire, or tried to connect the rev counter to the coil with diode.

Nice project mate.

prwoodford

That looks lovely! Would never have thought to put a Ka on those wheels but they really set it off!

Any chance of you sourcing me a left hand drive steering rack for mine? Struggling to find one for less than the price of a small mortgage here!

fordphb

Thank's

fordphb

Sorry, i don't understand what you want exactly
