1. Connect DigiDash
The cable supplied with a RED 9-pin connector should be connected to the Display module.
Connectors are gender specific to prevent incorrect connection.
Of the wires coming out of this green connector, you will find a RED wire with black fuse
holder, and a single BLACK wire. Connect the RED wire to a switched +12v (positive) supply
(usually this is a 12 volt feed from your ignition switch), and connect the black wire to the
vehicle Ground (negative (-ve)). It is more preferable to connect the RED wire to a position on
the Ignition switch that does not require the engine to be running.
2. Install Sensors supplied and connect according to Wiring Schematic
After installing the sensors supplied with the unit, connect wires as shown on the wiring
schematic, either directly using the cable supplied or to an existing wiring harness.

3. Turn on your Vehicle Ignition Switch
