What info does the gauge display mate ?

I'd normally expect the 'ign' wire on a gauge, to be connected to a ignition switched power point !

its a defi oil pressure gauge,need to wire up the defi link control unit 2 mate
This website will have all the info you need: http://www.nippon-seiki.co.jp/defishop/index.htm

There's pdf instruction manuals on there for the Defi link unit and all the gauges !

And you need to connect that 'ign' cable, to a decent ignition switched source... Like the cable coming off the ignition barrel !

cheers for the link,which cable is it from the ign barrel mate?
Erm.... the big red one... :lol:

Sorry mate, I don't know off the top of my head !

Your best bet is to get a multi meter and go probing !

why would you need to connect the ign wire,when your already wiring the 12v one which will make the gauge cone on/off anyway

I think it's because the permanent 12v +ve is for the gauge memory and the 'ign' is for the normal ignition switched power.

Doesn't it have a 'replay' function ?
