Color of tachometer wire?

So far, here's what I've found.

Tachometer blue ac tach test connector
Notes: The tach test connector is a 2 pin connector near the air intake on the driver side shock tower.
Wait to start N/A


But, it doesn't do me any good not seeing it with my eyes.

Can anybody take a photo of this wire?

I want to tap into this wire so I can get my MSD RPM switch up and going once it comes in the mail.

Any help would be appreciated.

It's an open plug just hanging around the driver side shock tower, it's the only one there with a blue wire.
Ps i'm pretty sure there is only one wire in it.

I believe its blue. I have the wiring diagram but its at home. I'll check to see if you got a response. Also, I believe its on the A connector.

crap, just realized you are tapping it under the head. I was thinking you were referring to the ecu itself. Sorry.

The diagram would still be helpful.
