Default 2001 Miata dash wiring

Can anybody give me the location of the tach wire out of the dash panel? and Also the speedometer wire. From what i get on service manual sheets it still leaves me guessing and I don't want to cut anything until I know.
Steve

Default Help

I wish I could help you but wiring is one of those areas in which I'm retarded. I believe you're getting no response because no one in here knows the answer to your questions. What year is your car? The tach is electronic and ,depending on your ignition system, there should be no need to go to dash wire to make it work. MSD, for example, runs from ignition to distributor I think.......my '90 has a mechanical speedometer and the only way I can determine to get it to work with the T56 trans is to install an adaptor on the trans orrrr.....replace with an electronic speedo and run it off existing trans hookups. Good luck. I'm gonna monitor this post to see if someone can offer some sound advice. Wiring is one of those ares where I need help too. Thanks, Tony

I don't recall seeing you on this site:

http://forum.miata.net/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=38

I suspect it's part of the reason why this site is not well supported.
