1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. There are two common types of transmission temperature sensor
installations:

Transmission Test Port: Most vehicle transmissions come
equipped with a test port location. This may be located on
either the driver or passenger sides of the transmission near the
transmission oil pan. The bolt in this port should be removed
and the sensor fitted in its place. Confirm port and thread size
with your vehicle dealer or owner’s manual. A test port
extender will be required when installing this sensor into
Dodge Ram model years 94 - 07.5

Stock Sensor Location: Use a T-fitting (optional) to T off
your stock sensor location. This will allow you to keep your
stock sensor installed, while also allowing you to install an
aftermarket temperature sensor.

Note: Some vehicles may require additional adapters to
complete the installation of this sensor.
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 temperature sensor. Connect the
white and black wires on the wire harness to the corresponding black and
white wires on the temperature sensor.

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.
