Please let me first state that my electrical skills are sorely lacking & are my 'Achilles Heel' when it comes to P6s & in fact cars in general .
I've had an intermittent speedo fault on Hazel (Series 1 V8) which looks to have been just the angle drive working a bit loose at the back of the instrument panel, meaning that it sometimes located with the speedo & sometimes didn't. I've replaced it with a spare & fully screwed it up. It worked fine on a test drive.
However, before I put everything back together, I've had a tacho/clock to fit for years, so this is a good opportunity. I can just about work out what wires go into the clock, but haven't a clue about the tacho itself. I can't find it mentioned anywhere on series 1 circuit diagrams either, which doesn't help.
Here is the back of the unit:
I think the green, black & white/red are for the power, earth & lamp respectively (like the clock) so please can someone tell me where the others go?
Many thanks.
