Hi

Apologies if this has been covered, did do a search 1st.

Is anyone familiar with how to wire these gauges
My egt sensor has yellow(With a blue tip) and a red( with a red tip) wires.
My water temp sensor has two red wires with red tips and a white wire with a blue tip.

So if anyone could tell me what goes where that would be great. What other connections are required? Didn't find the instructions much help

Thanks

"The input is configured for K type thermocouple. Almost all EGT sensors on the market use K type thermocouple. The most common problem in connecting the sensor is wrong polarity. USA made EGT sensor uses red color for the negative lead. EGT sensors from other countries use red color for the positive lead (including Auber’s sensor). If the polarity of the lead is reversed, the temperature reading will decrease as the engine warms up. Switch the leads between terminal 6 and 7 will correct this problem. Sensor will not be damaged if connected in wrong polarity."

My water temp sensor has two red wires with red tips and a white wire with a blue tip.

"connect 12 VDC to terminal 1 (+) and 2 (-). Connect the RTD sensor which has three wires. Connect the wires with blue connectors to terminal 6 and 7, and connect the wire with red connector to 8"

I have copied this from the pdf files on their website.

Here is some more.
"1) 1 and 2 are for power input
2) 4 and 5 are for alarm relay output.
3) 3 is for display brightness control. When connecting the
illumination signal (+12 V) to it, the brightness with synchronized with
headlight. If not connected, the brightness can still be controlled by
“Λ” up key.
4)6, 7, 8 and 9 are for different types of signal input. Use 6 and 7 for
thermocouple input. Use 6,7 and 8 for RTD sensor input. Use 6 and 9
for pressure sensor.
5) 10 outputs regulated 5VDC for powering pressure transducer."
