Default Indiglo gauge install help

Can someone please help me?

I have installed reverse indiglo gauges into my 2000 Integra. I used a fuse splitter to power the gauges off the instrument panel fuse. The gauges work fine when the can isn't running, but once the car is started, the gauges shut off.

If you have any ideas, please let me know.

Here is what you do, listen very, very carefully. You take the gauges and the original box that they came in... Put them back in and then you set them on the floor...put gasoline all over the box. and throw a match on it and step away..Then, you read all the posts on hondatech, and visit JDMHONDAPARTS.com. Throw away your altezza tail lights. and i think there still might be hope for you..GOOD LUCK!

well, other then that, it sounds to me like you have something wired to a reverse ground. Or other words, backwards. The + that i think you are using recieves current when the car is off, or the assessory is not activated. Try swapping the wires around and see what you get.

If that doesnt work forget the splitter and just tap right into the dimmer switch wires. Nothin to it.

Hope you like um, had some similar the old style a few years back, wasnt too happy, but enjoy
