Hey guys , I want to know how i can install this DEFI box where all the gauges link to , i just need to get power going. Here are the wires where do i connect these to (meaning best place)? there are 4 wires , Orange, Red, White , and Black. I know the Red is Power and the Black is ground. Sorry for the images there all wacky.

 

orange could be your ignition and the white could be your parking lights, sorry i haven't worked with Defi gauges before but those are the usual common wires to hook up.

 

thats what i thought , does anyone have a DIY for this install or can someone clarify in detail please

 

anyone ?

 

correct this wire colors is similiar to greddy

 

all you need to do first is very each wire, color coding is different sometimes.. it has a manual right?

 

hey guys thanks for the help i connected the gauges

 

^what where those 2 other wires for?

 

I have another situation, i tapped the wires into the radio harness , for some reason the gauges are on but they seem like there not bright enough , kinda like a dual color. Maybe i tapped into the wrong wire ?

 

If I recall, they have an auto lighting feature. If you tapped into the radio harness then it could cause it to not work exactly the way it's designed. Perhaps find another source if they don't look like they are at full brightness.

 

did you tap all of them or just some? tap your wire/s somewhere else where it's not taking power from another source, ground it, get your 12volts from the battery with a inline fuse, get your parking lights and ignition from under your steering wheels (forgot what wires they are at the moment, but i'll give you the colors of which you have to tap them wires to later today or tom). does your radio sound weaker like if it's not getting enough power ever since you put the gauges?

 

That would be great if you could give me the colors of which to tap. The radio itself is great. It must be since im taking it from another source thats why the guages are kind of dimm(like you mentioned)

 

the radio power sources should be fine unless you used the dimmer wire on the radio or remote turn on... the dimmer wire will only produce 12+ when you dash lights are turned all the way up... The slightest dim to the dash lights will send a (-) resistence thru the wires causing the guages to light up wierd. Also the remote turn on wire generally is only 1amp or so and may be 6 or 12 volts. Just a thought.
