Installing a Voltmeter Gauge & Wiring the Lights

[@waynefish888]

Thank you

[@ChanceColwell]

Are you gonna do the equus speedometer and tachometer?

[@Rustrevivalgarage]

I will connect the oil pressure gauge soon. But I’ve already installed the tach (another video). My stock speedo is working fine for now.

Where does the positive voltage wire go in the fusbox thank you

[@Rustrevivalgarage]

I used the fuse tap and put the wire in the "INST LPS" fuse. That's the instrument gauge light fuse so it's only on with your turn your lights on.

Thank you for your reply have a great day

Your not going to hookup the most expensive important gage?

[@Rustrevivalgarage]

⁠@@stevenkushinski6674 No.

[@patrickcurram9763]

For power! You can run from the battery of you want but than you would have to run a relay

Where did you connect the other red wire that hooked up to the light bult white wires?

[@Rustrevivalgarage]

All the white were bundled together and connected to a red wire, then connected to the fuse tap and put into the instrument cluster fuse. It said Instrument LPS (most likely for instrument lamps.) That way, the gauge lights come on when I turn on the headlights. The single red power wire for the voltmeter went into a fuse tap and I put that in the radio fuse so that it always had power when the key was switched on to either ACC to ON.

@@Rustrevivalgarage gotcha thanks! So bundle the white wires together and splice in into thr red wire going to thr fuse tap

You can get a copper line for oil gauge

[@Rustrevivalgarage]

I’ve actually got a new video up where I tried out a steel-braided line with AN fittings in my 68 Lemans. I’m going to swing around and hook up the oil gauge in the C10 soon!
