One of the two leads going to the Ignition Check Connector is broken.
The black/yellow lead is spliced into the black/yellow wire running from the distributor to the rev switch. The other lead is black/2 orange stripes(rings) and is broken. I opened up the harness and I cannot find where it broke off from. Anyone know?

Toyota wiring diagrams do not show the Check Connector though their service manual asks you to disconnect the check connector when setting timing. Is the Check Connector strictly for feeding a tach signal to a tachometer or does it have another purpose?
