Pick a color wire for the sending unit wire and connect it to the gauge using a ring connector.
Attach the other end of the same color wire to the Mustang Brown plug # 10 (
gas tank sending unit ).
Battery Charging
In order for the battery to charge, solder a 510 OHM resistor between the wires on the red light forming
an H with the 2 wires. This resistor can be found on the Mustang white gauge pod. Carefully clip the
resistor leads leaving them as long as possible. You may want to protect this junction with tape, etc.
solder the wires (with resistor soldered together ahead of wire ends) on the red dash light to two of the
wires on the second 4 conductor 2’ section. Attach the other ends of the two wires to the Brown plug
pin #2 (
Ign. Sw. to Ign. Coil (BATT) and brown plug pin #14 (Ign. Sw. (ACC) to Alt. Reg. ) using red
connectors. When starting the car, the light will turn on and then go off. The light is part of the circuit
and MUST be present.
High Beam Indicator
Connect one lead from the blue light to the black wire and the other lead to the second 4 conductor 2’
section.
Attach the other end of the same wire to the gray plug pin #2 (
Dimmer to High Beams ) using red
connectors.
The blue light will light when the high beams are on.
Turn Signal Indicator
In order for the green light to flash when either the right or left turn signals are turned on, a 3-prong turn
signal indicator is used. Find the original 2-prong turn signal (probably round and light blue or
aluminum) in the Mustang dash wiring harness in front of the passenger seat or near the center of dash.
If it is not here, turn the turn signals on and follow the sound. Remove the original flasher from the
wiring plug and carefully cut the two wire 90 degree wire connector in half leaving the wires connected
to each piece. Put the wires on the left and right prongs of the 3-prong flasher. Run the four foot blue
extension wire from the middle prong on the flasher to one of the wires on the green light. Attach the
other wire on the green light to the black wire using a red connector.
Install the gauges, lights and switches using the instructions included with the gauges.
