I've asked this in the electronics section but didnt get an answer. Basically, i have removed everythign from the car, even wiring (v6 swap). I want to use my new gauge cluster I bought, but I dont know the pin out on the gauges. I planned on connecting the wiring directly to the gauges, each gauge has like 3 studs on the back that take the ground, +12 and the data from the sensor, which pins get what? I could try each one to see what is what but I'm not sure it that would mess up the gauge if I got ground to +12, etc etc.

Anyone know or have a diagram of the pin out for the back of the cluster? I can trace the leads that way if someone has a chart or diag.

Thanks.

 

Lets see some pics of what u are talking about and then maybe we can help you. Your post leaves a lot of variables out there.

sorry. Ok, this link is to the gauge cluster i am going to buy. The problem is I dont have ANY of the original wiring that came in the ar, so by putting this cluster in my dash, the gauges wont do anything. I have to wire the gauges up myself, but I'm not sure which wire goes where. For example, the water temp gauge has 3 posts on the back, one will be for the ground, the next will be for a +12v and the last will be for the wire coming from the sensor. I'm trying to find out which wire goes to which post, OR which location on the original harness the wires go to. Hope that makes sense.

If you look on the link, scroll down to the pics and look at the pic that shows the back side.

 

Yeah. OK, your best bet is def getting a maunal. That is what i would do. If not just get all aftermarket guages. hehe. $$$. Check out my site if u wanna see what that would look like. Good luck.

 

i have a manual, but its so hard reading those damn diagrams. I'll see what I can find. I dont have $$ to buy after market gauges, nor do I want to mount them. Thanks anyway
