Fitting Instructions

1. Choose a suitable location for the ammeter with adequate access to the rear for connections and fixing.
2. Switch off the ignition and remove the key. Disconnect the battery (earth terminal first). Note: Before disconnecting the battery, make sure all system start up codes are known, i.e. coded radios etc.
3. Cut a 53mm diameter hole at the chosen location for the ammeter. Push the meter into the hole and fit the large ring nut to the back and tighten, making sure that the ammeter is aligned.
4. Locate the circuit to be monitored, slip over the inductive pick-up coil onto the cable, making sure that the arrow on the coil points away from the positive terminal. Connect the green, grey and yellow-black wires on the coil to the corresponding coloured wires on the gauge.
5. For 12 Volts applications connect the red wire to a 12 Volts ignition feed and the blue wire to earth. The LED gauge illumination white-red wire to the 12 Volts panel light circuit; the purple and yellow wires are not connected and should be isolated.
6. For 24 Volts applications connect the purple wire to a 24 Volts ignition feed and the blue wire to earth. The LED gauge illumination yellow wire to the 24 Volts panel light circuit; the red and white-red wires are not connected and should be isolated.
7. Check all connections are correct and secure. Reconnect the battery (earth terminal last). Switch on the ignition and start the engine. Check the ammeter indicates the charging current. Switch off the engine, switch on a heavy load and check the ammeter indicates battery discharge current.
8. Switch on the panel lamps and check the ammeter illuminates.
