check engine lights doesn turn on.

Hi,

I've got an question,

recently when i turn the ignition all de red check lights doesn't turn on (except the ebrake), Ive checked the cockpit with no lock.

Does anybody knows if there is an fuse or relay to check and where the fuse or relay is.?

I own an sa22c 1.1 from 1980.

thank you..

Your check and cut relay on the drivers side fender up near the clutch master may be bad or disconnected. Or it could be a grounding issue.

Is your tachometer still functioning as a voltmeter when the ignition is turned to the on position or does it only function as a tachometer?

Hi,

Yes everything is fully functional, only the red check lights right before you're gonna start the engine don't work.

thank you for you're reply

Found it

Hallo...

Thank You all, for the help..
I finnally found the time to start working on my rx7.
the black wire on the relay did not make an secure connection to the ground.
i made a direct connection to the ground of the battery, and now the engine check light comes on when I turn the key
