Electrics Wiz Needed

Hi Guy's.

Fitted a set of Perrin Combi Gauges (Boost/Exhaust Temp), the easy bit :) , I now need someone who knows what they're doing when it comes to soldering onto the wiring loom.

Is there anyone in the Club? :D

Do you know where the wires go as soldering is easy or do you need someone to find where they go

Need someone to find where to pickup in the loom then solder and heat/shrink wrap.

Instructions tell me which wires go where but I have no idea which colour wires they are on the loom.

I can wire a house :D but I draw the line at cars. :)

Wiring Instuctions.

Red- 12v constant power

Black- Ground

White-12v accessory power

Orange- Headlight switch

And that's it Ian

Should be a piece of p*** to fit as long as you don't mind the dash coming apart a bit :D

you could just tap off the stereo harness- if you not already sussed that!?

I posted the wiring diagram on SN a while back

It doesnt have the headlight tap though? I used to just have mine on all the time via the ignition tap and not switched via the headlights

Thanks for the HELP guy's think Ian is coming to the rescue.

Have to pick up on the headlight loom as the gauge lights change colour at night.

hi hugh

if its any help, its a matter of choice if you have them Illuminate when you have lights on or off,

mine Illuminate when lights are on, you can go from any Illumination wires if you want them to light up

when lights are on, ( clock, stereo, cig lighter, side light, or dash light etc ) also if you have more than

one pod, i had 3, all i did was looped the 3 pods wires togeather, so i only had to wire it up as if i

was fitting one pod if that makes sence.

also if you have a dimmer switch fitted in your car, you can go to that so you can dim pods down

at night if too bright......

also on the matter of wires if anyone is fitting a flamer kit in the future, my tip is?

wire it to the rear de-mister wires, which are located near the boot.

advantages

1, you dont have to fit a switch

2, you dont have wires going to dash or through the car

3, it only works with the de-mister switch on

4, if you forget to turn it off, dont worry its on a timer

5, its easy to fit.

& the best way to hot wire a car is oooppppssssss going back to my chav days sorry :D
