Remote Start/Ignition Question

I installed a remote start unit on my 92 f150/5.8. It works great, and all of the accessories work as they should. However, the cluster does not seem to have any power going to it when the remote unit is running the truck and the rear abs light is on. If it put the key in and turn the ignition switch on manually, all the gauges come on and the abs light goes off. I'm thinking at this point that there's another wire on the ignition switch that feeds the cluster that I did not get during the install. I hooked up to the black/lt grn, and the gray/yellow and the red/lt grn. Does anyone have a diagram of what feeds the cluster? Thanks in advance!

It is fed from fuse #17 a 10Amp fuse over a Red wire with a Yellow stripe that is hot in run or start position of the key.

You must have this fuse #17 in your dash fuse panel hot before you can get these Indicators to work.
