Please HELP
I bought an Electric (rather than Mechanical) Oil Pressure Guage 8)
BUT there were no Installation Instructions in the box :x :x
Does any one have one similar and could fill me in on how to Install please
It is made by HP - Hearty
Here's a few pics.
The back has terminals marked:
S : no doubt this goes to the sender unit (which was supplied)
+ : must be positivefor 12v backlit
- : as above (negative)
then there are:
1 x red wire (batt pos)
1 x blck wire (batt neg)
1 x grey and yellow cable which terminate in some sort of a "stick on" sensor :?
(Dimmer Unit) :?

Re: Wiring an (Electric) Oil Pressure Guage ??
The back has terminals marked:
S : no doubt this goes to the sender unit (which was supplied) ..........correct
+ : must be positivefor 12v backlit----connect to light switch
- : as above (negative)................connect to earth
then there are:
1 x red wire (batt pos) ....correct
1 x blck wire (batt neg) .......correct
1 x grey and yellow cable which terminate in some sort of a "stick on" sensor
me too got confused because there are 4 wires but two of them are for the light inside the gauge 8)

Re: Wiring an (Electric) Oil Pressure Guage ??
the stick on sensor is normally a pushbutton switch so jou can choose differant colours of backlighting,the black wire negetive and the red permenant + for the memory of the backlight
+=ignition+
-=negetive or earth
s=senderunit
if this doesnt work play around till it does aslong as jou connect black and - to earth and s to sender jou cant damage anything
hope jou come right
