Looked again.maybe this makes more sense
The SENSOR on the engine has a female socket

one wire from the ignition box has a male plug
The tach lead from the box is female
The pug in tach has a male plug on the end
This either plugs into a separate lead from the box with a female socket on it, or a Y connector. the male plug on the Y goes into the sensor female, the tach plugs into the female socket on the Y connector...The box male plug goes into the other female on the Y connector...

Well i did some checking with a ign tester and found that the plug on the tach goes to the plug on the engine(Hall sensor) and the plug on the ign marked sensor plugs into the tach.
The label is wrong.
when i plug the batt. in and plug the tach into the sensor wire the tach reads zero
when i plug the tach wire to the hall sensor and turn the motor over to where the magnet hits the hall sensor there is spark to the plug.

so the label is wrong and the wires are correct to the way they plug into the hall sensor and the tach.

whewwwwww I really didnt want to do it that way thinking I might smoke the hall sensor or the ign..

well lets see, now days you could say they are bi gender pins and plugs, because the male pins are in a female plug and the male has female ends but i will explain the best i can,
pin meaning female and plug meaning male.

If i am sticking something inside of something then what goes inside is male

alright we had our first class on male vs.female. I learned that about 50 years ago.

I may be wrong now days, but it has worked for me for years.

the RC EXL tach has a male plug to connect to the female plug on the ignition box...the leads inside the box come from two different circuit boards..The sensor goes to the ignition board, the tach goes to the advance/retard board....
a box with no tach lead can be used with a Y connector, the tach plugs into the female lead on the Y connector, the male lead on the y connector plugs into the sensor...
All RC EXL igntions have a female lead for the sensor to plug into...

Ok so in my case you are saying the label is wrong. because my sensor from the ign that goes to the hall sensor on the engine are both female

I thought Ralphs post was pretty self explanatory. Especially the last line that says
"All RC EXL igntions have a female lead for the sensor to plug into"

Your labels are right as in your post you say
"the plug on the Ign. marked sensor is also a female plug"

What is wrong is your hall sensor has a wrong plug. Send it back to the dealer at the dealers expense because they obviously haven't QC checked the engine and there is more than likely other things unchecked. Make them correct their laziness at their expense, not yours.

Which dealer did you get it from?

I just got this information from MR DLA
