and the key in the run position

if you turn it to ACC a light will indeed be on. it is connected to your car electrically right?
so yea is will come on. but it won't start it's light show until you start the car.

jasons_98gt · July 6th, 2008, 10:26 PM

i see so since its not doing its light show im more or less showing signs of a rich air fuel mix?

HMUSN · July 6th, 2008, 10:27 PM

when your car is off there is no way to tell honestly.
the gauge you have now is a joke. Sorry if I sound like an ass but it is.

jasons_98gt · July 6th, 2008, 10:30 PM

oh no its alright i was just confused everyone else gets the light show but mine just stays in the rich position which im thinkin is a problem somewhere

HMUSN · July 6th, 2008, 10:31 PM

you wired it up wrong is probably all.
the gauge is still worthless in any real performance situations.

jasons_98gt · July 6th, 2008, 10:33 PM

yea thats what im thinking.....i tapped into my fuse box for the radio as key on power is that a reliable source?

HMUSN · July 6th, 2008, 10:35 PM

save your money, sell that pos and buy a real one man.

like I said.. I hate to be a dick but what you bought is about as good as a flux capasitor
