Daisy Chain gauge wiring

[scrubs]

Happy Easter!

Warning, stupid question to follow:

I have the Vintage FFR gauges and understand I need to daisy chain the 3 wires from each of the gauges...how do people do that?

You should have received the daisy chain wiring in your gauge box. It's a string of connectors on a cable.

Ah, just received the gauges this week...no daisy chain...and the red/white/black from each gauge have no connectors - should they be on there?

[RBachman]

They did on mine. Are you sure you have the right gauge set?

Yeah, maybe in the rush they Sent stuff out incomplete.

Following to see other answers... My vintage gauges are the same as yours, connectors on the back of the gauge and exposed wire at the other end.

Have you called Speedhut? They're very helpful.

The box that my gauges came in also included the coolant temp sensor and oil pressure sender along with the wiring from those two sensors to the indicators

OK, spoke to speedhut this AM. They were really nice and helpful. Did report they get a lot of calls regarding FFR stuff...

1) The gauge kits no longer carrying the daisy chain. He said they were having issues with gauge of the wires, resistance...

2) All that is needed is to get all the reds wires together, black wires together and white wires together. He said he likes these for easy solutions, but you can do whatever tickles ya:

Since I have 7 wires to gang together, I may do 2 of the above since I have 2 "dash lights"/2 gauge feeds/multiple grounds.

Another option is to put them all in one connector: https://www.amazon.com/2773-408-WAGO-Wall-Nuts®-Conductors-8-Conductor/dp/B0BDPG2T2F/ref=sr_1_1?crid=8QUVLPA3FFUB&keywords=wago+2773-408&qid=1681144437&sprefix=wago+2773-408%2Caps%2C105&sr=8-1


3) He suggested using their supplied wiring for the senders and not the RF harness.

I will be running the yellow wire to the ignition coil for the tach
their senders to the oil pressure and water temp
fuel level: use their wiring as well, amputating the RF fuel level sender connector from the rear harness and splicing to the speedhut supplied

Hope this helps other who are "missing" the daisy chains and connectors.

I just mounted the gages, and didn't even notice if it was in the bottom section of the box or not. There's still some stuff in there, so hopefully it's there. Otherwise, thank you for the amazon links. They are in my cart just in case.
