Help Pyrometer Gauge Pegged
Just installed 3 gauges and they all seem to work except the pyrometer, when ignition is on gauge is pegged.When I wired it I ran one wire yellow to #10 fuse(Dimmer) and the red to Constant source fuse #18. Thanks in advance for your help.

Make sure that your Pyrometer has its own chassis ground, I have helped several of my friends with similar problems. On my VDO guages, I only wired the lights together, all of the guage functions need to be wired seperately. Try it, seems to have fixed problems with pyrometers in the past for me.

Well I want to thank everyone who responded to my plea for help, I isolated the ground and that did not help so I was checking on one of the push in butt connectors and it had come unplugged during the running of the wires.
All is well now,
So I have completed the air intake mod 6637, installed the EGT,Trans Temp and Boost gauges in a "A" pillar mount.
Today my Exhaust is arriving by UPS and after next paycheck will be giving TW a call.
Again a BIG THANK YOU to you guys for your guidance with out the support of this forum I would have been lost.
