FUEL GAUGE

Fuel – Yellow – The fuel gauge sending unit is not normally supplied because the display system
can use the existing fuel level sending unit in the tank in most cases. If your wiring harness
already has a single wire routed through the vehicle for the fuel sender, then it may be used. If
using a wire from an external harness, make sure that the wire does not have power. Fuel senders
reference their ground from the sender mounting plate. Connect the yellow wire to the factory
sending unit.
Fuel –Black/Yellow – Run a new ground wire and attach to your Fuel sending unit housing to
ensure proper fuel gauge operation. If the sending unit does not have a sufficient ground it will
not work properly.
Note: The default setting for this dash is the GM industry standard of 0-90Ω

FUEL GAUGE TEST
Note: Before installing or Setting up you must know your Fuel sender OHMS Range to
properly set Gauge up.
The most common problem with our Fuel Gauge not working is the circuit is not complete. The
easiest way to test for this is to use a voltmeter and test for continuity on wires going to fuel
sender after disconnecting from gauge. If not disconnected it will give you a false reading. With
wire disconnected from Fuel Gauge check for continuity to ground. Then test for OHMS to verify
within range of fuel sender. If you don't have an accurate reading. Run a new ground wire to
engine without this the Gauge will not work properly.
Voltage Gauge – This Gauge Requires no wire hookup. Volt Gauge is built into the dash panel
and is powered by the main power and ground connection of the dash. It does have an Adjuster to
fine tune the voltage. Note: you will need to adjust it before fully installing the dash
