Hi all,
I have the 87 defender 90 with a 2ltr disco TDI engine. I am nearly finished putting in the MUD center console (lots of wiring!).
the one remaining gauge i have to wire up is a TIM ammeter (because i have one before anyone asks why ;-) )
my question is that there seems to be lots of conflicting information on this topic so I thought i would ask here
Q. is the alternator feed the best place to wire this.
Q. is this a case of remove the feed from the alternator, run a feed from the amp meter to the alternator and a feed from the amp meter to the original destination of the alternator feed (assuming this will be the starter motor).
Q. what is the rating of the cable required to run this
Q. is there a better way! and do i need anything more than cable and terminals for this
thanks in advance, i am sure someone will be along in a moment with just the answer i am looking for.
