rev counter cable won't fix to back of gt380 clock....

I just bought a tachometer cable and discovered that the rear of the rev counter on my clock doesn't have an extended tube with a thread on it to correspond with the cable and the rounded 'screw' which you just tighten after pushing the cable in.

Has something dropped off my clock? Do i need to order a 'new' (s/h) clock from a breakers?

thanks for advice, as always. much appreciated.

Sounds like part of the clock base is missing.

there's no way that the rev counter could be electronic? I ask for 2 reasons:

1. the previous cable i dont think was ever connected but the rev coutner worked
2. there are 2 lose cables in my headlight bowel which i dont know what to do with.


bloody confusing, eh?

A picture top and bottom (of the clock!) is worth a thousand words.

Stock OEM was mechanical, but we don't know what you are looking at until you show us. :roll:

Pictures of the face and back of the clock should reveal all.
