[F500] Digatron Help

[Jeff Blumenthal]

I had a similar problem when I used Digatron/AMW.  Mine was connected 
directly to the coil using the tach lead supplied from Digatron.   The 
Digatron tach lead has a small diode (I think...maybe a resistor?) 
attached to the wire.  When my tach stopped working it was because the 
diode broke away from the wire. Naturally, I didn't find this out until 
I sent the unit to Digatron for service and it tested OK.

>We have a Digatron DT32RI that came with the AMW that we just installed in the car.  The EGT guages are working fine, but we can't seem to get the tach function working.  We have tried 2 different RPM sensor leads, but no luck.  I've spoken with Digatron several times and tried everything they suggested, but no luck.  The unit was sent back to Digatron for refurbishing before we installed it and they insist that they tested all functions sucessfully...

The black wire from the probe is connected to the otherside of the kill switch (which is grounded to the engine).  I have also connected a ground wire between the Digatron itself and the engine at the request of the Digatron tech.
