How Does One Wire A Voltage Display?


Recommended Posts

Positive of battery to positive of the display and negative to battery to negative of display?

Yeah, but what path do you use for the long wiring into the car?

I'm thinking about buying this:

Is that a good deal or are there better places?

+ on the display to a 12 source, fuse it if you directly to the battery

- on the display to the ground

and turn on wire to your ignitions wire. you can splice into the ignition wire going to your h/u

Run the power wire in with the main power input on the amp.

then run it to the dash and into a toggle switch, then into the + side of the gauge.

then ground the (-) of the gauge.

this will give you at amp results that you can toggle on and off.

stinger meters have 3 wires. + - and an ignition wire. + goes to + at amp and - to any ground source and ignition to your remote. i don't see the point of having the switch. i like to monitor my voltage at all times tho.

Hmm.

Thanks for the info.

Hmmm. So I wire it to my amp.

Wow this seems like a hassle. I'll have to put this project on hold lol.

I need to upgrade my electrical first.

Thanks for the info guys!
