Whats up gentlemen,

So first and foremost I already had the Big 3 upgraded, i have an optima yellow top deep cycle battery. & i just upgraded my alternator to 160A.

Now in my car, every time i put the hand brake down, my gauges on my cluster turn on. as soon as i changed the alternator, i noticed that once the hand brake is down the gauge is not lit. But as soon as i rev the motor, they come on and stay on. I also notice the lights on the dash become a bit brighter..

The brand is Load Boss
i bought it off ebay

when i bought it, it was a 4 pin configuration made for the US motor,
but here in Canada our configuration is a 3 pin. So i had to get a regulator and change it to 3 pin.


anyone have any idea what this could be?

any help would be greatly appreciated !

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm i was thinking


maybe i should just wire the gauges directly to the chassis instead of my hand brake? .. but it doesn't make sense b/c once my hand brake is down its supposed to be grounded.. it always has been.. and now it when i put it down, it seems like its only grounded when i rev the engine?

any ideas guys
