Temperature Sensor Installation
2. Install the oil temperature sensor. There are three common types of oil
temperature sensor installations:

Oil Gallery Test Port: Some engine oil galleries will have a test
port plug. Check your owner’s manual to verify the location and
thread size. Remove the port plug and install the supplied
temperature sensor. Additional adapters may be required if the
port is not threaded to 1/8
th NPT.

Oil Filter Adapter Installation: You can purchase an Oil Filter
Sandwich Adapter from www.GlowShift.com. This oil filter
sandwich adapter is installed between your oil filter and engine
block, providing you with 3 sensor ports in which you can install
the oil temperature sensor to.

T-Fitting Installation: Remove your stock oil temperature
sensor and fasten a T-fitting in its place. 1/8
th NPT T-Fittings
are available for purchase at www.GlowShift.com. Using a T-
fitting allows you to “T” off of the port and opens up 3 more,
which then allows for the stock and GlowShift sensors to be
installed and operate simultaneously.
Connecting the Power Wire Harness
3. To make the wiring of your gauges easier you can purchase an
expandable circuit. This component easily fits into your fuse panel and
provides an additional fused power wire for accessories such as gauges.
The expandable circuit is available for purchase at www.GlowShift.com.
4. Connect the green wire from the gauge to the white wire of the oil
temperature sensor. Then, connect the black wire of the oil temperature
sensor to any good (unpainted) ground connection.
5. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge); connect the red wire to a
positive 12 volt ignition (switched) source. It may be connected to the fuse
panel, an accessory wire, or any positive 12 volt source that turns on and off
with the ignition.
6. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge); connect the black wire to any
good (unpainted) ground connection. You may also route a wire directly to
the negative side of the vehicle’s battery.
7. The Night Time Dimming feature decreases the brightness of the gauge
face by 30%. Connect the orange wire to the 12 volt positive headlamp
source. This allows the mode to be activated when the headlights come on.
This step is optional and will not affect operation of the gauge if it is omitted.

Note: Do not connect the orange wire to a dimmer wheel. This
will cause the gauge lighting to flicker.
8. Reconnect the vehicle's negative battery cable.
