Default Defi gauges set up??

Finally had my flocked dashboard fitted great thanks to Ian! The only problem I have is the gauges are playing up when about to start the car they all flash and beep like they should but once the car is started they go off? Do they need to be setup again? Callum

Change where the lead is going to the meter input, you have 2 on the controller, you need to plug it into the black input 2, not the white input 1

Yeah simple fix. Just going to get the gauge pod fixed in today had some double tape. Thanks again for fitting it buddy. The polished intake to fit now may get stuck in to that today.

You sure? The last 2 ports on the right hand side of the controller, They both have the same amount of pins, Is it a Link controller 1 or 2(I have the 2) The DC Scource wont fit anywhere else and that is where the power comes from, Ive just copied this from another site where i got the info for mine from,

Constant 12V+ (Defi red wire) should go to the blue w/ red stripe wire on the radio harness.

Ignition 12V+ (Defi orange wire) should go to the green w/orange stripe on the A/C harness.

Illumination 12V+ (Defi white wire) should go to the violet wire on the radio harness.

Black Ground (Defi black wire) should go to the black wire on the radio harness.

Just check the wires but i`m sure its just a matter of changing from the white input 1 to the black input 2 and it should be right.
