Installation
Proper installation is crucial for the accurate operation and longevity of your gauge set. Please follow these steps carefully.
General Installation Notes:
- Ensure the panel surface is clean and dry before cutting.
- Allow sufficient clearance behind the panel for wiring and gauge depth.
- Securely fasten all connections to prevent vibration and ensure reliable readings.
GPS Speedometer and Tachometer Installation:
These gauges require an 85mm (3 3/8") diameter hole in the panel. Ensure a clearance of 55mm (2 3/16") behind the panel to fit the gauge. Insert the gauge into the hole and secure it with the provided fastening ring.
Fuel Level, Water Temperature, Oil Pressure, and Voltmeter Installation:
These gauges require a 52mm (2 1/16") diameter hole in the panel. Ensure a clearance of 55mm (2 3/16") behind the panel to fit the gauge. Insert the gauge into the hole and secure it with the provided fastening ring.
GPS Antenna Installation:
For optimal signal reception, securely fasten the GPS antenna in a flat position with the black side upwards. Ideally, place it outside or inside the front windscreen to ensure a clear view of the sky. Connect the antenna cable to the designated socket on the back of the GPS Speedometer. Do not cut the antenna cable.
Operating Instructions
Once installed and wired correctly, the gauges will power on with the vehicle's ignition. The backlights can be switched between red and yellow depending on your wiring choice (Orange wire for Red backlight, Yellow wire for Yellow backlight).
GPS Speedometer Operation:
Upon initial power-on, the GPS Speedometer will search for a satellite signal. This may take approximately 30 seconds for the first signal acquisition. Subsequent acquisitions will be much faster, typically less than 3 seconds, especially with a clear view of the sky. The odometer will begin to accumulate mileage once a signal is acquired and the vehicle is moving. If the signal is lost while moving, the last recorded speed will be displayed until the signal is re-acquired.
Tachometer Operation:
The Tachometer displays engine RPM. It features an hour meter to track engine operating hours. The speed ratio can be adjusted to match your engine's specifications. To set the speed ratio, long press the black rubber Mode button on the instrument for 3 seconds. The LCD will show the H-value. Continue pressing to adjust the value. Release the button for more than 3 seconds to exit setting mode.
Fuel Level Gauge Operation:
The Fuel Level Gauge displays the liquid level in the fuel tank. It requires a compatible fuel level sensor. The gauge supports two common signal inputs: 0-190 ohms (empty signal is 0 ohms, full signal is 190 ohms) and 240-33 ohms (empty signal is 240 ohms, full signal is 33 ohms). Ensure your sensor matches the gauge's input signal type.
Water Temperature Gauge Operation:
The Water Temperature Gauge displays the engine coolant temperature. It must be used with a compatible water temperature sensor. The gauge's input signal is 287.4-22.4 ohms. Ensure your sensor provides this signal range for accurate readings.
Oil Pressure Gauge and Voltmeter Operation:
The Oil Pressure Gauge monitors engine oil pressure, while the Voltmeter displays the vehicle's electrical system voltage. Both require appropriate sensors or direct connection to the electrical system as per the wiring diagram (Figure 7).
Maintenance
The ELING Gauge Set is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. Keep the gauge faces clean using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the display or bezel. Periodically check all wiring connections for tightness and ensure they are free from corrosion. If any wiring appears damaged, replace it immediately.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Gauge not powering on. | No power supply; loose wiring; blown fuse. | Check power connections (Red wire to +12V/24V, Blue wire to Ground). Inspect all wiring for secure connections. Check vehicle's fuse box. |
| GPS Speedometer displays "Err" or no reading. | No GPS signal; GPS antenna improperly placed or disconnected. | Ensure GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky (black side up). Reconnect all wires, especially the GPS antenna cable. Restart the vehicle/power cycle the gauge. |
| Inaccurate readings (Fuel, Water Temp, Oil Pressure). | Incorrect sensor signal type; faulty sensor; loose sensor wiring. | Verify that the sensor's signal output matches the gauge's input requirements (e.g., 0-190ohm for fuel). Check sensor and wiring connections. Replace sensor if faulty. |
| Backlight not working or incorrect color. | Incorrect backlight wiring; faulty LED. | Ensure Orange wire is connected for Red backlight and Yellow wire for Yellow backlight. Check connections. |
