bloxman Posted October 19, 2006 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2006 Evening everyone Strait up question Can I install a Volt / fuel guage ( unknown year of Z) into my 75 280Z wiring harness as plug and play? The Volt / fuel plug is identical is identical to the Amps / fuel on the back of the guage though the wires are a different colour (scary). It was determined in a previous Thread that this was the way to go as I do not have a shunt (none came with the car) and I have done the alternater up grade to get rid of the Voltage regulator Yes I know there is a lot going on electrically! Thoughts ,encouragement , solutions would all be appreciated! Bloxman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjhines Posted October 20, 2006 Share #2 Posted October 20, 2006 IIRC the AMP guage main terminal wires should be connected together when it is removed...The volt guage + should connect to the main wires the AMPS guage used and the - to ground...Do not attempt the hook up the VOLTS guage in series the way the AMPS guage was wired...I think a later version of the AMPS guage used a shunt under the passenger kick panel... That may change the underdash wiring significantly... use caution here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zup Posted October 20, 2006 Share #3 Posted October 20, 2006 Bloxman--- I still have the shunt I managed to get for you from Doug Nicole's parted out 75 280Z. Post something up here if you decide you need it. :classic: Jim D. "Zup" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
