Boost Gauge wirng????
 
just mounted my boost gauge in a home made pod (piece of black plumbers pipe) now need to wire it up.

I have installed it just below the heater controls. On the right hand side of the heater controls is a little blanking plate which if removed reveals a 9 pin plug.

I wondered if anyone knew which 3 pins I could use for power/earth and light

Just tap in the radio wiring

would that be for earth positive and light?

Excuse me being thick this is my first Turbo motor and it's all very different for me.

also where does the pipe from the back of the gauge plug into.

These are the first questions in millions so please be patient with me.

Here is the link to a picture:

Use 2 of the wires for positive and light (you will need to test until u find them). Then use the metal cage that the radio sits in for the earth.

Put Pioneer CD head unit in last week so know the wires off by heart now (after blowing 1 10amp fuse Oops!!)

Brilliant will sort this asap, just need to figure out where to plug the boost tube into now???????????

There is a nice place to take it off near the brake servo, near a one way valve.

One tube is blocked off, or you can remove the original boost gauge hose and use it there.

brilliant, will try your advice and hopefully get it working.

Will get the hang of this Turbo stuff eventually.

I'm trying (Yes ok very trying I know)
