    red wire = main power (ignition)
    black = ground
    green (tach or shiftlight) = rpm from box

    I have no idea sa diesel na ride...pero if you have a multi tester, check mo kung alin dun sa 2 wire na binangit mo ang ground...yun ang sa black, and the other sa green wire.

    I tested the sensor(injection pump) but no one is connected sa to a ground, so meaning yung isang wire baka connect to +12V and the other one is to the tachometer. ito kaya.

    possible din yan. Try setting the multi tester to volt (sa 50V max) and measure the voltage across the 2 wires, then one of the wires and a body ground....if you get a reading on one of the wires, yun ang live (12v+).
