supra_ufo Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I got my depo reacing boost gauge yesterday and attempted to install it by following this guide. http://mkiv.com/techarticles/boostguage/bg.htm I have tapped into the ashtray light as the thread explains however I have a red (positive) and orange remaining but I am unsure where to connect these wires to. Could I chop the connector on the clock wiring and tap into the wires on there, does anyone know specifically which one I can tap into? I think the orange one needs to go to the light dimming wiring but I have no idea which wire to connect to :-/ I have attached the instructions Appreciate any pointers, thanks.

mattdavies Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 The orange is only if you want it to dim when the lights come on and the red will give you memory, I tapped all mine off the stereo wiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iky Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 With the black and white wire in should the gauge be working because at the moment its not working at all :-/ just do all three to positive to make sure it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaz2010 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I had the same problem so I used the clock connector as mine was a 50mm so fit nicely. Just try different ones and you will find it out. :bang: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
