A-Pillar Gauge Wiring, How to wire them into the lighting... Options

[Guest_Jason_*]

Well I received my Silver Tenzo-R Boost and AFR Gauges today, and I don't know exactly where to wire them into so that they light up. Many of you have done it, so it would be sweet if someone could give me a nice explanation of an easy way possibly? Thanks guys.

What you can do is get two SPDT automotive relays, and then wire them up as follows.

Relay 1
85 - Wire that gives +12v when parking lights are on
86 - Ground
30 - Fused +12v from battery
87 - Illumination wires of gauges

Relay 2
85 - Wire that gives +12v when ignition is on
86 - Ground
30 - Fused +12v from battery
87 - +12v wires of gauges

Then you'd simply hook up the sensor wires to the sensors, and hook up the ground wires of the gauges to a good ground source. Then your gauges should work.

I understand what you mean, but i'm only trying to get the Illumination Wires connected for now, and I don't know where to connect them at?

Run the wires to your Illumination wire off your deck. Its yellow. They'll turn on when u turn your lights on.
