Do you have a volt meter handy?

If yes, measure voltage drop over the two leads when the lights are on.

I forget what I hooked my set up to - but it was somewhere in the center console anyways - cause I remember cutting the bejaysus out of my hand running the wires in behind the dash - those metal brackets are sharp!

it seems as if theyre not gettin enough power when ya turn the lights on. but when you use the adjuster they come on. is there a way of saving the light setting you want?

is there a way of saving the light setting you want?

When I installed my dials, I set the adjuster to the way I liked it and tucked it behind the dash.
Haven't seen it since, the dials stay the way they were set.

[croagy]

thats what i thought too but mine turn off every time. then need set everytime i turn the lights on

[colm_mcm]

where did you tap into to get power?

[croagy]

the ashtray light. might earth it on somethin else one the metal brackets.
