MAN #650778  

Interface cable to OEM Harley plug

 

Connect the interface cable from the back of the gauge to the OEM Harley plug.

INDICATORS

Several indicators are supplied on the stock wiring harness, including turn signals, security (red key symbol), check engine 
(red engine

), low oil psi (red oil can) and high beam (blue headlight). 

OPTIONAL OIL TEMPERATURE 

Dakota Digital part number SEN-1043 or SEN-1044 must be used. The SEN-1043 is a one-wire sender 
threads.  Connect the terminal on the end of the sender to the indicator harness blue wire.  Because this sensor grounds 
through its body, ensure sure the sender threads are able to make a metal-to-metal connection to complete the ground.  The 
SEN-1044 is a two-wire sender 

.  Connect the sender red wire to the gauge gray wire and connect the 

sender black wire to the indicator harness black wire.

Adding the SEN-1039 typically replaces the stock low oil pressure switch, eliminating the brown wire. The digital message 
center will alert the rider of a low oil pressure condition, which is user adjustable (10psi default).  

CLOCK 

The clock is set by pressing and holding the left switch while the selection arrow is next to the clock.  The minutes 

will begin flashing.  Every time the left switch is momentarily pressed the minutes will increase by one.  Press and hold the 
left switch to change to the hours adjust.  The hours will begin flashing and every time the left or right switch is momentarily 
pressed the hours will increase by one.  Press and hold the left or right switch to exit the clock setting. 

NIGHT DIMMING  

Your display system has a dimming feature that dims the display intensity automatically at night.  Normally the 

system is at full brightness for daytime viewing.  To have the system at full brightness all of the time, go into the DIM setup 
menu and select OFF instead of AUTO. The gauge also offers a sunlight mode which will turn the background white, and text 
black for maximum contrast in direct sunlight.
