Hello Again,

 

Thanks to everyone for the helpful suggestions!

The gauges are now installed and working perfectly.

I have a series of pictures showing the senders,

wiring, etc. if anyone is interested.

Hi All,

 

Thanks for all of the very helpful suggestions!

 

I like the idea of taking power near the headlight - 12V there is near the instruments, controlled by the

ignition switch, and the additional draw of the VDO gauges and their lights on that circuit should be small.

 

I will post a longer reply and pictures when I get the whole thing working. Providing the 12V supply and

ground are really the last steps, so I hope I will get to posting the installation soon.

 

The back side of the fuse block on my Rosso Corsa is pretty hard to reach, due to a short wiring harness

coming up from underneath. I can't even see if there are spade terminals on the backside where one could make

wiring connections. Is my bike worse than usual in this regard?!

 

Thanks again!

Bruce

Hi All,

 

I am installing VDO electric oil temperature and oil pressure gauges on my

2003 Rosso Corsa. I need to find a 12V ignition-switched supply to run the

gauges and their lights when the ignition is on. Does anyone have a

suggestion for where to get the 12V switched power? Can I safely take 12V

directly from one of the existing positions on the fuse block?

 

Thanks,
