Default Shiftlight problems
This is suppose to be simple. I had a Autometer shiftlight that also reads rpm. I connected the rpm trigger to #8 injector and it seemed to work as the rpm readout was correct. Adjusted the set point to 3k and it worked fine. adjusted the set point to my shift point and the shiftlight would cut off and flash on decel and wouldn't flash at it's set point. Connected the trigger to a window switch and seemed a little more stable, but still not working correctly. Installed a Autometer Tach Adapter that is connected to the coils and has a 12v output. And my guess is solid. Changed to a used Proform shiftlight triggered from the Tach Adapter, I'm able to adjust the set points at lower rpm's but again as I roll up the set point it doesn't work. The installations are done in the manner described in the installation instruction. Anyone running a shiftlight having similar problems.

Thanks,
