Default [Wiring]: Almost there now. :)

Got the power fixed, it was the problem somebody suggested. The 12V switched wire I tapped into was not powered because it was an old BOSE Amplifier line that is no longer used.

New issue......

The power works great, nice and clean, until you start the engine. Then the gauge flickers a tiny bit, and appears to flicker more the higher the RPM goes. So I am going to tap into a different one and see if I can get some cleaner power. This wire is the one that comes in right (or goes out) at the firewall at the main connector.


Also.....

Where should I tap in for 12V switched with the headlights. I tapped into a brown wire which should be hot when the switch is in park or headlight, but it didn't seem to work. Are the gray wires driven by the potentiometer, or are they a on/off 12V.

All I need is the elbow from summit to show up and I'm good to go. :)
