what are you powering, do you need a hook up for your gauge or something?

Correct. One of those Firestone gauges. All I need is illumination dimmer wire
Actually it says illuminating circuit - should be on dimmer I figured

Took a few hours to put all the air lines and compressor in and about the same looking for a wire
