Clock wiring

Good afternoon MGers

 

I am wiring the dash panel and have a query about the clock. It has one connection which I assume is power. Should  I earth it via one of the screws fixing to the body of the re counter or ?

 

You may ask why I am bothering as they seem to work for a maximum of 2 minutes.

 

Thanks

Geoff, Yes, it needs an earth wire. The loom has a bunch of black wires that earth to the screws on the tacho holding posts. One of the black wires is esrthed to the chassis. Norman Verona Mob: 0741 9905 741 Web: [url=http://www.frenchblat.com]www.frenchblat.com[/url] Sent from BlueMail
