could anybody give me advice on fitting a prosport boost gauge please, so far ive plumbed the sensor into where my dump valve goes 3rd nipple on inlet & connected the black red & white to them coming from back of the gauge, now power wise ive found a plug doing nothing which has a earth & a ignition switched positive so ive connect the earth to earth & the red & the amber wire(for lighting) both to the ignition positive as i want the light on all the time with ignition on, but problem ive got is when i start the engine the gauge lights up & goes all the way round & keeps beeping?? anyideas what ive done wrong?

if you want the gauge to stay white all the time if i remember rightly you have to connect the red wire to a permanant live, the black to earth and the white to a live that comes on with the ignition and leave the amber wire disconnected.

cheers for the quick reply, with ya so ill connect the red to permant live & black to earth, i want it red when igition on so i put the amber wire to the switched ignotion positive, see what happens with this i dont seem to be getting any pressure reading though its does the ceremony but then stops at 30psi not -pressure

yea if you want the gauge red all the time its the amber wire to the switched live . not sure about your other problem though, i`d just check all the sensor wiring is fitted correctly and the little plug is pushed right in at the back of the gauge.
