factory inductive ignitions (without an MSD), connect to the coil negative terminal.
Note: Whenever the ignition is turned On, the Shift Light will illuminate for a couple seconds to indicate
that it is operational. If it does not light, check all of the wiring connections and for voltage on
the Red wire.

The MSD Shift Light is programmed for operation on 8-cylinder engines. To program it for use on
other engines, cut the correct wire loop(s) as shown in Figure 1. Seal the cut wire ends with the sup-
