You might need to be more specific in regards to which boost gauge you have..

But it is very simple. You will need a 12v source, earth and then connect the sender to a boost source (on the intake manifold).

Embarassed ...sorry lads...should have given more info here....BUT..asked for a "how too" for those that....
like me, get the shits with something THAT SHOULD be simple..? till you OPEN THE BOX.... Suprised Mad

this is a "auto dragon" gauge from japan...very much like the "dephi" gauges..? or whatever you call them..?






sorry chappo....this is the rest of the shit in the box..? is this what you are on about..?

as you can see (and i understand what you are saying )...but this f&%king thing has wires/connectors all over the thing...!!! i have worked out the "small" plug to the rear of the gauge is for a "peak light"..!!
which i have not got..!!...F#@K KNOWS where ALL the other wires go.... Confused nick Embarassed Smiley


oohhh...i did not include the pic of the little unit that the vac line attaches too...THIS has bloody wires coming from it...TOO...?


Last freaked with by NICK 05 on Mon Jan 09, 2012 3:53 pm; freaked 2 times in total

Doesn't look like you have a boost sensor to go with that gauge?

One of the plugs will go to the sensor which will have a power wire (reference should be 5v coming from the gauge to the sensor), ground and also a sensor wire which reports back a 0v-5v signal.

The other plug will also have 3 wires, one will be for power, ground and illumination wire to hook up to your dimmer circuit with your lights.

The middle set goes to your sensor. either out side set goes to your power, which is
red= +12V
Black= earth
White= ACC
Orange= lights
The last two will depend on what colour you want it to light up tho.
Ive wired mine to the clock so that would go to
Light green= light
white black= Earth
Purple black= ACC
lime yellow= +12V
The bottom plug which you dont have goes to a warning light for when you hit high boost
Hope that makes it clear as mud

Yea looks like the double pluged lead is so that you can plug in extra gauges with no wiring. Glad we could help.
