Hi all,
Just want to check something before I blow anything up...
I am removing the rheostat (its flaky and in any case doesn't do much gauge dimming anyway). I'll use the hole in the dash for a switch for driving lights.
Anyway, am I right in thinking I can simply connect all the wires attached to the rheostat together and then the gauge lights will be on "full power" all the time )when the lights are switched on)? That would be the solid red wire and the 3 red/whites.
The thing that's confused me is that if I put a continuity tester from the solid read to a ground, I get a circuit???
Many thanks.
