Ok, so I installed my glowshift wideband, i tapped into the passenger fuse panel and took the 12v current, the signal from the ignition and grounded it. The gauge comes with an optional dimmer wire that when 12v current is received it will dim the gauge. is there a fuse/wire in the passenger fuse box that i can tap into so its not soo bright at night, or what wire will work? it would have to tap into the headlights some how or a switched source that comes on with the headlights... could i use one of the wires on the dimmer switch or are those constantly on?. thanks guys.

any1?

 

find out which wire supplies the instrument cluster power to the backlights.

 

thats what i was hoping someone could tell me.. ill keep researching

 

Got fogs? If so, tap it into that switch so when you flip on the fogs, it dims out

 

are u confident you know wtf u are doing when it comes to wiring?

 

^^ def listen to this guy. And I can vouch that he knows what he's doing with wiring, he had a base ls that had crank windows he converted to the SS power everything. He fooled me, you'd never know it was an ls lol

 

get a test light haha

 

Uhh emp has a SS/SC..

Anyways just tap into the dimmer that controls the insturment panel so you can dim it with the knob to the left of the steering wheel

 

I was referring to wbrevels...he swapped all his stuff over to power lol sorry, I can see how that could have been read the way you took it lol

 

Oohh I gotcha.. I still say tap into the stock dimmer to the left of the steering wheel

 

thats what i did.. works awesome.. thanks guys

 

did you tap into the purple wire??
