gauge wires - adamm306 - 05-08-2013

Hi guys was looking at this guide to fitting my boost gauge

http://www.306oc.co.uk/forum/thread-2940.html


all sorted with connecting it to the intercooler etc

quick question in regards to the 3 wires i have on it

[Image: boostgauge_zps297ed128.jpg]

am i right thinking the red one can go onto the orange wire under the steering wheel in the coin tray thingy on P1 or would i need to put it on the switch wire of the stereo?

ground is located in the drivers footwell

and lastly one that isnt mentioned on the guide

where would i put the purple wire which is supposed to go onto my "light dimmer"? and where is it located

thanks guys

Find a switched live and connect the red to it.

Purple can also go to where you connect the red wire if you dont mind none been able to adjust the brightness.

sound man Big Grin

and ill just pop them both on the switched live then brightness isnt a issue as long as it works!


RE: gauge wires - adamm306 - 05-08-2013

yeah all sorted joined the purple/red together just need to extend it now and scotchlok it into the headunit switched live

switched live on the 306 is the white one i believe?? and pink is permanent (p1)


RE: gauge wires - ConorTRG - 05-08-2013

Yeah white is switched iirc.
