    Sorry to hijack but I had a question like this a while ago and I'm still not sure.

    I have Stewart Warner Guages and I have the sensor mounted on my tranny. It has three wires-red, black, white. Any ideas how to hook this up?? The gauge already has power to the signal and light then the signal wire runs down to the sensor.

    I was told signal to white, ground black, and more power to red???

    My sensor also came with the gauges.


    Thanks

    I've used them on several occasions and the most difficult part of the job is calibrating it once it's installed. All you have to do is order the sender to fit your trans. for the speedo you buy.

    That is correct. Red to a switched hot , white toe the speedo and black you can ground at the tranny so you dont have to run it far

    Thank, seems doable.
    How does a GPS work, and all you have to do is plug it into your lighter/power socket, but shows real time speed?
