Azz Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Can anyone point me in the right direction for wiring these up,I have 1 wired up but it won't go off :/ its wired to a direct positive, an earth, dash lights and ignition through my turbo timer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J25GTi Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 is the turbo timer keeping it on? i.e. when the timer finishes does the gauge go off?Sounds like switch and perm live wrong way round? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azz Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 is the turbo timer keeping it on? i.e. when the timer finishes does the gauge go off?Sounds like switch and perm live wrong way round?Erm it stays on after the turbo timer has gone off, it all works fine just won't go off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J25GTi Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 sounds like permanent live and switch live are the wrong way around? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michael! Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Looks like uve just picked a Permanant Live instead of a switched Live which i took of my ignition! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azz Posted February 25, 2012 Author Share Posted February 25, 2012 Looks like uve just picked a Permanant Live instead of a switched Live which i took of my ignition!I will have a look first thing, but it says you need a permanent live and a switched live Thanks guys for the help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
J25GTi Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 you do, make sure they are the right way round and is definitely a switch live Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azz Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 you do, make sure they are the right way round and is definitely a switch live Right guys I have switched the live and switch live around and it is still staying on, starting to get I little confused now.Has anyone got a picture of them wired in please Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I used the heater wires for powering mine no pics though, would be useless anyway because it all looks a jumble lolJust extend each wire from the gauge and put them into the harness slots to test which ones can power them that's what I did Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Azz Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Rite guys I've'e kind of sorted it BUT ! There is a small white box attached to my ignition barrel with a small ball that goes into the barrel, if i attach the gauge ignition wire to it nothing happens but if i unplug the wire to the white box and leave the gauge connected to the wire everything works fine! but with that plug disconected from the white box will it effect anything.surely it must do something by disconneting the box but i cant find anything wrong Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azz Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 Anybody know what the white box does ^ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidAshton Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Wire it off your fag lighter loom, there are 2 wires so you cant fuck up, the red one is the live. Its a switch ignition too so it wont stay on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
