Yet another Defi video

LSE · 05-10-2008, 07:06 PM

Made this one yesterday. I used my digicam so quality is not so great. And the damn thing kept losing focus. I need a proper video camera but my budget for that went towards the gauges

looks good but shouldn't they sweep at the same time as the main gauge cluster? mine do atleast.......

They used to do that. But I had them change the wiring because I couldn't listen to the radio and have the car in ACC without the oil pressure alarm going off. It was driving me insane.

For all the cool features defi has, they should really let you disable the alarm.

i can listen to my radio without the defi guagues turning on. THey only turn on in the 2nd key position. Where did you tap power from?

hmm. honestly I don't know since somebody else installed everything for me. When I had them re-wire the gauges to only come on at the ON position, they start up slightly behind the main cluster.

did you use some wiring diagram from somewhere? I am not good at mechanical mods but I know my way around wires. I'm sure I can re-wire them.

Power them using the clock radio harness on top of the dash, this way they will turn on and work in order with the main cluster.
