Mounting Instructions; Wiring Instructions - Intellitronix DP2001 Installation Manual

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Remove the factory gauges from the existing instrument cluster and insert the three new digital
panels.
2. Insert the wires for both the speedometer and tachometer gauges.
3. Mount the gauges into the housing using the hardware provided.
4. Wire the gauges and sending units into their designated areas as instructed below.
5. Remove the protective paper coating from both sides of the acrylic lens.
6. Remove protective coating from both sides of the Plexiglas lens.
7. Reuse the original housing and bezel screws to attach the new panels to the original dash bezel.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

Note: Automotive circuit connectors are the preferred method of connecting wires. However, you
may solder if you prefer.
Note: LS Engines or any other Computer based engine systems most use provides sensors and
install new wires to new sensors
Note: If doing a LS engine swap, pick up the tach signal wire from the ECM/ECU and then set
the tach switch to 4-cylinders. You may also need to order the Intellitronix LS Engine Swap
Adapter Kit for Series 1, 2 and 3 engines. The part number is 8014LS. If you are getting the tach
signal from the ECU, the resistor in the adapter kit will help pull a stronger signal for the
tachometer. If your engine is a LS the Tachometer will need to be put into 4 cylinder mode by
removing Resistors if the Tachometer does not have a push button for programing, please call
Tech Support at Intellitronix, as you may need to send the gauge back to us to be reconfigured.
There is no charge for this additional service.
Ground – Black--This is the main ground for the display system. A wire should be run from
this board to the vehicle engine block for the best ground. Use 18 AWG or larger wire to ensure
sufficient grounding. Proper vehicle grounding is extremely important for any gauges (or
electronics) to operate correctly. The engine block should have heavy ground cables to the
battery, frame, and firewall. Failure to properly ground the engine block, senders, or digital dash
can cause incorrect or erratic operation.
Ignition – Pink --Connect the power terminal to accessory +12V power from the fuse panel or
vehicle wiring harness. Using a 5-amp fuse or an inline 5-amp fuse holder This terminal should have
power when the key is on or in accessory position. Use 18 AWG wire to ensure the system receives
a sufficient power feed.
ater – Blue - This gauge is incompatible with other sending units, so you must replace the existing
W
water temperature sending unit with the included sender. Do not use Teflon tape or other sealer
on the new sending unit's threads to avoid inaccurate readings. Connect the blue wire to the
sending unit. For best results we suggest running a new wire.
ater –Black/ Blue -This is ground for water temp sender and must be wired to corresponding
W
wire on dash.
