Question

My good lady bought me a genuine Suby column mounted boost gauge (not all wives hate their husbands passion for Scoobies) and I have mounted it OK.

To save me performing contortions under the dash with my multimeter, could anyone point me in the right direction to easily pick up the dashboard lighting circuit? Its a MY00 by the way.

Thanks

Ken

The Purple wire or the Yellow and Blue. I can't remember which one is the 12V supply from the light switch. I think the other one is the automatic turn off when you turn your motor off. Possibly the switched -ve. Just check either wire with your multimeter.
I just wish i could have told u the exact one but it has been 6 months since i installed the radio.

I have the info for u but it is at home. I can get it later and post it for u. I have an Aust MY00 so i think the wire colours should be the same.

Tiger,

Got it sorted. Picked up the supply from a purple wire with silver dots which feeds the fog light switches.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
