There was another problem with the Kroon wiring harness, the back-up switch and the brake light were switch, As a result the back-up light did not work and the brake light was always on. Here is the sorted wiring. Thanks @Bartlett 914 for lending a hand!

Kudos on the build. Just beautiful. Curious where you sourced Your fuel oil pressure gauge to replace the fuel parking brake gauge of the standard 914 gauge. Also, did you obtain an original 914-6 tach (with the higher redline) or did you have it converted?

Anxious to see this completed.

Bill is waiting until I document all the wiring issues so as to just file one report. Electrically I only have one last item to fix and that is the interior light and door switched. There was an issue with headlight switch that I will have fixed tomorrow.
I was contacted by two individuals who bought Kroon harnesses and after inspection they did NOT have the same defects...bad QC I guess

Both gauges came to my shop with the 914/6 so this would be a question for @Targa70
Bill?
