1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge), connect the red

wire and POST to a positive 12 volt ignition (switched)

source. It may be connected to the fuse panel, an accessory wire,

or any positive 12 volt source that turns on and off with the

ignition switch of the vehicle.

 If wiring to an un-fused source, install a 3 amp fuse

inline within 20 inches of the sources connection. You

may obtain an optional “add a circuit” accessory. This

component easily fits into your fuse panel and provides

an additional fused power wire for accessories such as

gauges. This is available at www.GlowShift.com or a

local auto parts store.

3. (Optional) The dimming feature of the Tinted Series decreases

the brightness of the lighted gauge face 30%. Connect the orange

wire to a positive 12 volt switched source. The most common

installation is to splice and connect to the 12 volt positive

headlight source. This step is completely optional.

 This gauge should never be connected to a dimmer.

Connecting the gauge to any type of dimmer switch unit will

cause the gauge to improperly function.

4. There are three common types of oil pressure sender

unit installations:

 Oil Gallery Installation: Drill and tap the oil

gallery to 1/8 NPT. Install the supplied pressure

sender.

 T-Fitting Installation: Purchase a 1/8 NPT - T-

Fitting from www.GlowShift.com or an authorized

dealer. After, you may remove the stock sending

unit and fasten the T-fitting in its place. The fitting

allows you to “t” off one port and opens up 3 more,

which then allows for the stock and GlowShift units

to be installed and operate simultaneously.

 Oil Filter Adapter Installation: Purchase an

Oil Filter Sandwich Adapter from

www.GlowShift.com or an authorized dealer. This

adapter will extend your oil filter an inch and

additional ports to connect to your GlowShift

pressure sensor.

5. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge), connect a

wire to the “G” POST on the sender to the POST

of the gauge.

6. Connect the black wire, POST and “WK” post

sender wire to any good (unpainted) ground

connection. You may also route a wire directly to the

negative side of the vehicle’s battery.

7. Reconnect the negative battery cable.

 Be sure all of your wiring is correct for proper gauge

operation.

Additional Installation Information & Material Requirements  GlowShift Gauges Approved Conductor Wires: Successfully installing GlowShift Gauges may require lengths of wire (sizes and quantity depend on vehicle, gauge type, gauge location and / or sensor location). For correct and proper GlowShift Gauge installation and operation, the use of 18 Gauge (wire diameter) automotive grade conductor wire with sheathing is recommended for one or more gauges per vehicle.
