Righto i have finally got my digi dash installed. it all works apart from the fuel gauge. it all comes down to the wiring. i know not many of you know much about digital dashes and this is aimed at thegreatdane:

my stock 2.0Si fuel sender has 3 wires. black, green-red and a yellow-white. ive figured out that black is ground yellow-white is for the gayge and green-red is for the fuel light sinch when u ground it the fuel light comes on.

i have the sender for the digital dash now installed. it has 5 wires, three of these are the same colour:

black,yellow-white,green-red,blue-red,brown.
i am confused now. heres where im hoping someone till help me out with this what wire goes where

yeah about that when i ripped the old loom out of the dash i found that the climate control wasnt even wired into it so i swapped the dash looms. but the problem with the fuel sender is at the rear of the car.

anyways i think i sorted it by looking at thegreatdanes how to.... i hooked the 3 wires that were the same colour up, ran 2 new wires to the cpu box for the digi dash to the two that he said needed to go to the fuel sender. and then matched the colours. it seems to be working fine...telling me i have half a tank so ill se how i go
