Linwood's article is exceptional; however, it is based on installing the
unit on a negative ground car. If you are still positive ground, then the
wiring will be different. Also, there is the option of receiving the
signals from magnets on the drive shaft or off of the coil. I am trying to
install a replacement unit on my car and am having trouble getting it to
work. The unit appears to be hooked up properly but the control unit is not
working.
I, too, would like to see all responses posted to The List.
