normally you'd find where the engine loom meets the car loom and look at th e9-pin plug for the green wire, btu if the corsa C doesn't have this setup then you'd need to connect the shiftlight to one of the -ve coil feeds, then switch it to 2cyl and it will work fine.

yeah it's a multi coil but can't find the tacho signal, probed justabout every wire there was and nothin. I know the shift light is working coz i tried it on a car with a dizzy.

3) tacho signal, usually from the negative terminal on your ignition coil. If you own a multi coil car you will only need to locate the tacho signal from your computer which will be avalible either from the wiring loom near the computer itself or from the ign power module

Yes it does, but unless you can switch it to 2cyl set up, you'll have fun connecting it.

connect it directly to the oil pack and switch it to a 2cyl config on the shift light, only connect one of the -ve feeds from the coil.

think your goin 2 struggle there cos the engine control unit sends a signal to the body control module which then sends a signal to the instruments!! Goin to be a bit of a nightmare to work out.

as above. I've looked thru the Corsa C TIS and there are only speed signals which don't work with my shift light.
