Megajolt Installation with rev counter.
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi,

I am installing a megajolt into my mini but want to run a rev counter.

I have read on here that the best way to do it is to drill out the EDIS and connect the rev counter to that.

Has anyone got a pictures of this, and when the wire needs to go.

Also could someone direct me to the correct rev counter I am going to need for this, I want it to have a black background, chrome bezel and 52mm diamater to match my other gauges.

Thanks for the help guys.

Jon

Any rev counter should be ok, try http://www.minispares.com/SearchResults.as...mple&ty=fi&rt=1 and http://www.minispares.com/SearchResults.as...mple&ty=fi&rt=1 for the bezel

i think no 11 on the megjolt is the one for the rev counter

this may be useful

You can use the Megajolt output on most aftermarket rev counters.

The method described above is used when using the original mini counter.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Mine works fine striaght from the megajolts. no problems.

Mine 'was' working fine from the pin for Rev counter (MJ V4) but then got very bouncy, etc)
I splined it into the pip line on the MJ and its working fine (That was a tip from Brent from Autosport)

Got a small TIM rev counter working using the diode circuit on megajolt site.

-MINI CLUBMAN 1380 TURBO-

So just +ve to the pip and -ve to ground?

I had to plumb mine into the PIP signal to stop the bounciness.

On mine i have 3 wires. +12v, Gnd and Signal.

The signal wire is the one that needs to go to the MJ PIP signal.

Will the standard mini counter work from the MJ PIP?

This is what I thought.

Does anyone know what pin is the tach output on the EDIS?

Or you can use teh tach out on teh MJ itself, although it can become bouncy

I use the pin 11 off the edis unit, I did try the Tacho output from the mj but the gauge didnt work on over run!

You just splice into the pip on and connect the signal wire to that... tacho works g-reat! (Mine is aftermarket tacho) not sure about the rest, soz.

i have a rover tacho and race tech both work fine through the mj

Sorry to drag up an old post.

Any body using an autogauge tacho with megajolt, if so which wiring method have you used

could you fit the white and black wire from the coil to the rec counter gauge of the edis in order to got rpm on original 3 clocks ?

My Metro tacho didn't work properly from the MJ output so I tee'd into the PIP wire and it's OK now
