GT Phayer Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Im wiring up my prosport gauges and ive noticed on the diagrame it says:Orange connected to 12v lightingBlack to groundRed to 12v ignition switchI want the gauge to light up so can i just connect the red and the orange to the same ignition source so it works as soon as i turn the ignition on and not when the lights are on if that makes sence Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 the red has to go to a constant positive if not it wont story any data and u get a high pitched beep everytime u turn it on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 didnt rly answer u question there lol bascily no the orange has to go to a positive that is only on with ignition and the red has to go to a constant positive from the battery Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT Phayer Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 its not the peak warning gauges by the way just says red to 12v ignition Quote Link to post Share on other sites
_shaun_ Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 ahh not sure might not be the same then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GT Phayer Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 yer it does need to store anything so shuold hopefully just link them both up to a 12v source when the ignition is switched on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
