Hi, I just installed a console in my 76, I have a question about wiring the gauges
my Gauges have red/white stripe black black/blue stripe orange and green the harness has red/white stripe and black, double gray, black/red stripe and black double orange. I have the volt meter working but am unsure about the rest. I was unable to attach a picture so if someone has a console maybe the could take a look. |

Red/white stripe=="Switched" power. Run this to the +12V contact on the temp and voltmeter gauges.
Brown (not orange) == ground. Connect this to the ground contact on all three gauges. Plain black == constant power. Run this to the +12V contact on the clock. Black/blue stripe == "Lights on" power. Run this to the instrument illumination lights on all of the gauges. It hooks up to the grey wires in the car wiring harness. (Not sure why they went to grey, but they did.) There should be a green/red stripe (or is it a black stripe??) wire in the car's wiring harness. That would be where you plug the green/red wire that hooks to the "sender" contact on the oil temp gauge. --DD |

I had got it all to work except the temp gauge, I could not be more appreciative of these posts. Now I can just replicate the diagram for later cars. On a side note my lef front heel bearing went out tonight, the car sits in front of a LoversPackage. Tomrrow I will operate.
Thanks again Neal |
