Reverse Glow Gauges

Bolverk · Post by **Bolverk** » May 5th, 2006, 6:09 pm

I got some reverse glow gauges a while ago and finally got around to putting them in. Went in just fine, but they dont light up. The faq says to connect the power to the red wire, another says to connect to the red/black wire, and they say to do it on the parking brake light which is on the back of the cruise control!? I am so confused. Can anyone tell me where exactly to connect the red wire for the gauges? I just have the black grounded under a screw.

my faq says the red/black wire correct??

i'm not 100 percent sure but i think that was it

u'll connect to the wire that has

parking lights
front stop marker lights
taillights
licence plate
rear side markers all go to the R/B wire which should be red black?

Where do I find that wire that I connect to? Does it plug into the back of the instrument cluster or is it somewhere else inside the dash?

There's a red/black wire that runs to the dash dimmer switch, that's your 12v when your turn on your headlights. If you want your guages to turn on with your headlights, that's what you'll want to splice into.
