1.
Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. There are two common types of EGT probe installations. We
recommend installing the probe pre-turbo for the most accurate reading.

Exhaust Manifold: Drill and tap the exhaust manifold to 1/8

th

-27

NPT. Install the supplied EGT probe directly into your exhaust
manifold.

Note: After drilling and tapping your exhaust manifold be
sure to use both a magnet and vacuum to safely remove all
shavings from the manifold.

Exhaust Temperature Bracket: This method is not shown, but you
may purchase an exhaust temperature bracket from GlowShift.com.
This adapter is clamped and tightened around the exhaust pipe and
provides a 1/8

th

NPT fitting for an EGT probe. Using a 7/32

nd

drill

bit, drill a hole in your exhaust pipe. Position and tighten the
adapter clamp, then mount the probe through the fitting and into the
exhaust pipe.


3.
Route the temperature sensor wire harness from the back of the
gauge (port D) through the firewall to the engine bay. Next, couple and
secure the sensor wire harness to the EGT probe. Connect the white on
the wire harness to the blue wire on the EGT probe then connect the
black wire on the wire harness to the pink wire on the EGT probe.

Note: Be sure to use a grommet when routing wires through
the firewall to protect them from stripping and damage.

4. Connect the white 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 switch of
the vehicle.

Note: If wiring to an un-fused source, install a 3 amp fuse
inline within 20 inches of the sources connection. You may
obtain an optional “expandable circuit” accessory. This
component easily fits into your fuse panel and provides an
additional fused power wire for accessories such as gauges.
This is available at GlowShift.com or a local auto parts store.


5.
Connect the

red wire

to a positive 12 volt constant (un-switched) source,

either directly to the battery or to a fuse panel on the vehicle.

Note: If wiring to an un-fused source, install a 3 amp fuse inline
within 20 inches of the sources connection. You may obtain an
optional “expandable circuit” accessory. This component easily
fits into your fuse panel and provides an additional fused power
wire for accessories such as gauges. This is available at
GlowShift.com or a local auto parts store.


6.
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.


7.
Connect the black wire from the gauge, to any good (unpainted) ground
connection. You may also route a wire directly to the negative side of the
vehicle’s battery.

8. Reconnect the negative battery cable.

9. Daisy Chain Feature (Optional): If you are installing more than one
Elite 10 Color Gauge, you can use the daisy chain feature to power up to 4
additional gauges. Simply plug the included daisy chain wire into the
gauge that is already powered (port B); then plug the other end of the wire
into the daisy chain port on the next gauge.
