Ok,
For the rev counter you'll need to run a wire from your coil round and into the dash to connect to the green wire. For the oil pressure I think you'll need to change your sender to a 2 wire item, as a present you'll probably only have the single wire one.
As for the wire from the nova loom, I haven't got a clue, I'll try and check it out for you tonight when I get home and have my Hanyes in front of me :)

hi m8

your lucky!!! i got quoted 76 quid!!! i know of 2 in a scrappy, if i can have them away ill let you know

as for the wire, green white black is indicators. but it is BOTH hence the astra wire black white and black green. u dont use this wire from the nova loom as you run two wire Blackwhite and blackgreen to your indicator stalks

HTH

Ere we go again,
indicators flash all the time really quick(left hand side) but if i pull the stork down, it goes to normal pace. If i push my stork op to indicate right, the 2 lights on the dash come on

Cant get rev counter to work also! the green wire is used for the immobiliser, but i tapped into it, and still no joy! iv tried other ports on the ignition coil 2, but no joy!

Car wont start, but turns over!

NE help appreciated
Thanx Mike and Chris
Thanx in hand

Checkout my site below, goto Nova-X then pull down menu to Digidash. You'll need to run new wires from the indicator stalks so the arrows work correctly. Borrow an Astra Haynes manual and work from both books.

We did mine using a guide from http://www.vauxnova.co.uk Wiring diagrams are all on there, if in doubt use the wiring diagrams in the astra/nova haynes manual. Arn't they a bitch to fit!! :evil:
