Default Questions about a Shift Light Install

I have a JDM CTR cluster that is messed up, when Vtec pops, the rpms go to zero. Its not the distributor!! Now I purchased a Shift light, because I dont know what I am revving to, and sick of looking at the VAFC for my RPMs. So I wired up the red and black wire to the stereo, and wired the green wire to the blue RPM indicator right next to the steering column in the engine bay. Now the shift light comes on when the car is started, but does not come on at 8600, when suppose to. I was thinking because of the cluster was not reading after Vtec hits, the shift light will not work. So I rewired the light into the VAFC green wire, RPM signal wire. The shift light still does not come on, and now no revs read on the cluster. Now I am wondering if I were to get a new cluster, will not problem be resolved, and how can I rewire the shift light to work for the time being?? pls let me know. Thanks

Get a working cluster & possibly have your tuner add a CEL shiftlight to your ecu
