Default I must be doing it wrong. Shift light.

Installed a raptor shift light, but I obviously did it wrong. Followed the wonderful instructions that I gleaned from searching this forum. Good stuff.

Except, I'm not finding the right wire. I went with the tap a wire from the bundle that is behind the trunk release switch. When I got into that bundle, I found FOUR white wires. One wire was larger, and there were 3 smaller gauge wires. That's obviously not it. Raptor spools up just fine, and spit back all the right codes to me. Just no engine speed signal, I then ran out of time to test the other three.

Am I in the right bundle? This bundle goes up to the gauge cluster's left side (looking at it from the driver's seat).


(and NO, I'm not going for the PCM tie in spot)

These are the instructions that I used to install the Raptor on my 03 Z.

Good luck.
Thanks. That was the set of instructions I was using. I think I see four white wires in the nice color photo.

I obviously picked the wrong one. Soon as I get some time, I'll pick another and have a go at testing.
