1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. 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 switch of the vehicle.

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 “add a
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 www.GlowShift.com or a
local auto parts store.


3. (Optional) The dimming feature of the Tinted Series
decreases the brightness of the lighted gauge face 30%.
Connect the orange wire to a positive 12 volt switched
source. The most common installation is to splice and
connect to the 12 volt positive headlight source. This step
is completely optional.

4. 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.

5.
There are three common types of exhaust temperature probe
installations:

Exhaust Probe Adapter Fitting: This method is not shown,

but you may purchase an exhaust pipe probe adapter fitting
from www.Glowshift.com or an authorized dealer. This
adapter is clamped and tightened around the exhaust pipe and
provides a 1/8NPT fitting for an EGT probe. After
positioning and tightening of the adapter clamp, you will then
drill your exhaust pipe and then permanently mount the probe
through the fitting and into the exhaust pipe.

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

NPT. Install the supplied temp sender with probe fittings,
bushings, ferrel fitting and nut.

Exhaust Pipe: Drill and tap the exhaust pipe to 1/8 NPT.

Install the supplied temp sender with probe fittings, bushings,
ferrel fitting and nut.

6. Connect the pink & blue temperature probe wires to the pink &
blue wires
on the gauge harness.

7. Reconnect the negative battery cable.

This gauge should never be connected to a dimmer. Connecting
the gauge to any type of dimmer switch unit will cause the gauge
to improperly function.
