Temperature Sensor Installation
2. The water temperature sensor may be installed 1 of the 3 ways
listed below. The sensor should always be installed before the
vehicle’s thermostat or the gauge will not display a reading until
the vehicle’s thermostat has been opened.

Coolant Fluid Port: Locate a coolant fluid port located on
your engine and remove the port plug. Directly install the
water temperature sensor to the coolant port. Additional
adapters may be required if the coolant port is not threaded to
1/8
th NPT.
 Stock Sensor Location: Use a T-fitting (optional) to “T” off
your stock sensor location. This will allow you to keep your
stock sensor installed, while also allowing you to install an
aftermarket temperature sensor.
 Water Temp Adapter: Purchase a Water Temp Adapter from
www.GlowShift.com. Cut the upper radiator hose and install
the adapter between the two halves. Install the hose clamps
included in the kit and tighten. Run a wire from the screw on
the attachment to the engine ground and install the temp sender.
Connecting the Power Wire Harness
3. To make the wiring of your gauges easier you can purchase an
expandable circuit. This component easily fits into your fuse panel
and provides an additional fused power wire for accessories such as
gauges. The expandable circuit is available for purchase at
www.GlowShift.com.
4. Connect the green wire from the gauge to the white wire of the
water temperature sensor. Then, connect the black wire of the water
temperature sensor to any good (unpainted) ground connection.
5. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge); connect the red
wire to a positive 12 volt ignition (switched) source. It may be
connected to the fuse panel, an accessory wire, or any positive 12
volt source that turns on and off with the ignition.
6. Using automotive grade wiring (18 gauge); connect the black
wire to any good (unpainted) ground connection. You may also
route a wire directly to the negative side of the vehicle’s battery.
7. The Night Time Dimming feature decreases the brightness of
the gauge face by 30%. Connect the orange wire to the 12 volt
positive headlamp source. This allows the mode to be activated
when the headlights come on. This step is optional and will not
affect operation of the gauge if it is omitted.
 Note: Do not connect the orange wire to a dimmer
wheel. This will cause the gauge lighting to flicker.
8. Reconnect the vehicle's negative battery cable.
 Power on the vehicle to ensure the gauge is functioning
properly.
