bear with me because i\'m useless with electrics!
i\'m trying to wire up three gauges (water, oil and boost) and i\'m not 100% on where to plug them into.
can i just connect all of the wires marked "negative battery" to an earth on the chassis?
where\'s the best place to draw power from? i\'m rubbish at reading wiring diagrams so all of the terminal blocks (plus the immobiliser and previous owner\'s turbo timer) by the ignition make no sense to me. if anyone has any pics of their gauge wiring i\'d be seriously grateful.
thanks,
when i was going mine i did
1 - got the lighting feed from the back of the fag lighter - this way when you dim the dash - the gauges dim aswell
2 - the earth - i uses a chassis earth ( a random screw i found into the body work )
3 - power - to be honest - i think i took this from either the fag lighter or the radio - at least it was on a fuse this way
hope this helps :D
