Temperature Sensor Installation
2. The water temperature sensor may be installed 1 of the 3 ways listed
below. The sensor should always be installed before the vehicle
thermostat or the gauge will not display a reading until the vehicle
thermostat has been opened.

Coolant Fluid Port: Locate a coolant fluid port located on your
engine and remove the port plug. Directly install the water
temperature sensor to the coolant port. Additional adapters may be
required if the coolant port is not threaded to 1/8
th NPT.

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.

Water Temp Adapter: Purchase a Water Temp Adapter from
www.GlowShift.com. Cut the upper radiator hose and install the
adapter between the two halves. Install the hose clamps included in
the kit and tighten. Run a wire from the screw on the attachment to the
engine ground and install the temp sender.
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 water
temperature sensor. Then, connect the black wire of the water 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.
