Egt Guage Not Working After Install
Just installed my egt guage and it's not working. All ISSPRO Products. I followed the installation instructions to the letter and now the final results are no reading on the guage whatsoever.
Here is what I did:
-Drilled and tapped manifold for probe.
-Installed the probe
-Connected 6' lead wire to the probe. Red to Red, Yellow to Yellow to egt probe and Pyro Electronic box.
-Connected Guage White plastic connector to the Pyro Electronic Box connector.
-Tapped into orange with brown stipe wire behind dimmer switch for backlighting.
-Grounded guage black wire.
Nothing!
Help me please!

per the instructions, I used a "close by" phillips head screw and a d-ring to ground it. I grounded it with one of the phillips head screws that hold the light switch in place. Now that I think about it, it's plastic......Could this be the problems with everything not working?
It's real bright outside so I cannot tell if the light is working on the guage.
Where is a good place for the grounding wire?

THe "best" place to ground is to run it back out into the engine compartment, on the drivers side, there is a common ground for all the vehicle electronics. IMHO, its hit or miss with fastners inside the cab anymore.
