Blitz Gauge
Guys,
I bought some Blitz AC gauges the other day, a Boost and Oil temp one and going through the instructions now. The gauges can be found on here:
http://www.blitz-uk.co.uk/2003/gauges.html
and are the dark carbon faced ones under AC.
Anyway the instructions are the same as for the BLM ones. Has anyone fitted an Oil Temp one of these BLM gauges?
Can you tell me what the different leads are for coming out from the gauge.
If I go from the left saying what I think they are can you confirm this:
Black - Ground to chassis
Red - ground to chassis (was told this so not sure if correct)
Yellow - to Ashtray illumination light
black white - adapter for sensor
Orange - Ground to chassis (was told this aswell but not sure if correct)
The Red wire has a +12 next to the instructions and the Orange one has RTN +12 next to it.
If you wanna look at the Jap instructions they can be found here:

the Oil Temp gauge is the bottom left one.
The way I thought of the gauges is that the Boost Gauge was a Mechanical Gauge and the Oil Temp was an Electronic one therefore needing to be wired into a power source that is always on (with the 12V leads I thought).
I might be completely wrong as I am a novice when it comes to electrical wiring.
Please can you help me on this one and tell me how to wire it in.
Cheers,
G
