cool I will try to pull up the schm's on both at work tomorrow and send or post them for printing. with both of those drawings in hand you should be able to wire that sucker up and have it work.

ok I have the diagrams you need but even with them you may not be able to get the speedo working unless you modify the speed pick up at the trans. the 240 is done with an electronic sensor and the D21 was done with a cable. have you factored that in to what you are trying to do? I have 2 of them scanned but my scanner program started giving me fits and not saveing the scans right. there are about 6 pages total. I will try to reload them in a bit.

ok heres the 95 240 feed diagram. specific wiring diagrams to follow if my @#$% scanner works...lol



Now this is the feed diagram for the 90 D21. no diagrams pulled for this as you can figure it out by your existing set up with this diag.
