AEM Ignition

Where does the white wire comming out of the box go to. I know the red and black go to the battery, but where does the white go?

I believe that is a signal wire for a tach gauge.

i cant believe peeps are still bying this ignition. please do a search on these boards.


prepare to be stranded on the side of the road, sending your ignition back multiple times to be fixed as they wont issue refunds...and being pissed off until you cave in and get the msd or other...any other...

Gotham went through FOUR aem igitions on my car before I ate the lost money and went with the msd. The car is finally on it's feet.

Messing with the aem cost me about two months of headaches....and a couple strandings on the side of the freeway when my car decided to just shut off.

keep that plug to route your ignition back to stock handy. you are going to need it.

He already has experienced the failure. AEM has addressed the situation and the new ones we ( RX7Store) have received are doing just fine.
