Powerstroke wire sources. Arrow #1
(red with yellow trace) is where to
connect switched ignition power. The 2
wires that get connected here are connected via a wire tap.
The 2 wires are from the pyrometer and
trans temp gauge amplifier boxes. NOTE: We
are now supplying a Yellow (larger) male
connector for this connection. Arrow #2 taps into the
instrument lighting power (Light Blue with
Red tracer or Yellow with no tracer wire,
2nd from the top left on the large grey
connector) Arrow #3 is where to ground pyro, trans temp, and gauge lighting
wires.
NOTE: There are many different
locations where you can obtain your
ignition switched 12V source and your
dash illumination. Depicted above is
just one example. Irregardless of
where you connect your gauge power and
illumination source, we recommend that
you check these sources first, before
you make your connections. For 12V
Ign. switched: Using a voltmeter, ground
the black lead from the meter to chassis
ground. With the red lead off the meter,
probe the 12V Ign. switched source.
You should read 12-13VDC when the Ign.
key is turned on, and 0V when the key is
off. For the dash illumination:
probe the red lead of your voltmeter
probe the suspected dash illumination
source. With the running lights
off you should not read any voltage.
When you turn the running light on you
should see the voltage rise and fall
with the adjustment of the dash
lighting. |
