Product Usage Instructions

  1. Connection from Dash to ECU: Wire the Can H/L Wires (Red/Black Twisted Pair) to the ECU Can H/L Wires. Use a volt meter to verify that there is 12V on the Yellow Wire (12V Switched). The screen will only turn on when 12V is applied.
  2. Dash Setup & Configuration: If you have already completed the assembly process of your dash and provided your TunerStudio Registration and Current Project, your setup and configuration are complete. Proceed to wiring the I/O connectors
    for your digital and analog inputs.
  3. I/O Connectors: The Pro Dash has two I/O connectors for sensors and digital inputs. Refer to the provided diagrams for each pin’s location, function, and wire color in the 12-pin and 10-pin black connectors. Use the provided sensor and digital wiring harnesses, T-Tap connectors, and breakout board for easy connections.
  4. Sensor Connector: Make a single wire connection by attaching the Yellow Wire (Pin 12) to your vehicle’s fuel sending unit signal wire. Use the provided T-Tap Wire Connector for easy connection to your factory wiring.

CAUTION: Make sure to install a Jumper Wire (With Factory Resistor or Fuse) between the vehicle’s alternator excite/sensing wire to the vehicles ignition wire when removing the instrument cluster or your alternator may not charge. To verify that your alternator is charging start the vehicle and use a Volt Meter on the Battery terminals. You should have a reading of 13V+ when connected to the Battery.

Connection from ECU to Dash: Install your USB Tuning Cable into one of the open USB Ports on the Pro Dash
Connection from Dash to ECU: Wire the Can H/L Wires (Red/Black Twisted Pair) to the ECU Can H/L Wires

Troubleshooting Dash Not Turning ON:

  • Fan on back of Dash Running – NO
    • Verify Wiring – Make sure the Red (12V Battery) and Black (Ground) are NOT hooked up to the CAN H/L wires. This is the 6ft long twisted wire pair that goes to your Megasquirt ECU.
    • Verify 12V – Use a Volt Meter to verify there is 12V to both the Red Wire (12V Battery) and the Yellow Wire (12V Switched).
  • Fan on back of Dash Running – YES
  • Use a Volt Meter to verify there is 12V on the Yellow Wire (12V Switched). The screen will only Turn ON when 12V is applied.

Dash Setup & Configuration

After the assembly process of your dash, you were requested to provide your TunerStudio Registration and Current Project.
If you did this, your setup and configuration has been completed and you can move on wiring to the I/O Connectors for your Digital and Analog Inputs

If you did NOT, please contact support@dd-efi.com to complete this step of the setup and configuration process.

I/O Connectors

The DD-EFI Pro Dash has (2) I/O Connectors for Sensors and Digital Inputs. Below are diagrams outlining what each Pins location, function, and wire color in the 12 Pin and 10 Pin black connectors. Provided: Sensor and Digital Wiring Harnesses, (4) T-Tap Connectors (Used for: Fuel Level, L/R Turn Signals, High Beam), Breakout Board (If you purchased sensors directly from DD-EFI)

Sensor Connector

  • (5) ADC (Sensor) Inputs:
    o Sensor 5, this is pre-configured in default DD-EFI Dashboards for Oil Pressure
    o This requires a Digital Pressure Sensor, so if you need one, we offer one at https://dd-efi.com/collections/accessories
  • Breakout Board – this is included with any order that purchases sensors directly from us to simplify the wiring process
  • Sensor Wiring:
    o All wiring diagrams are on our website (https://dd-efi.com/pages/technical-resources)
  • Fuel Level (Yellow Wire) – this is a pre-configured internal circuit to make the wiring of your factory vehicle fuel sending unit a single wire connection. Attach the Yellow Wire (Pin 12) to your vehicles fuel sending unit signal wire. There is a provided
    T- Tap Wire Connector for easy connection to your factory wiring.DD-EFI Digital Pro Dash-fig3

Digital Connector

  • (2) PWM Outputs:
    • Configurable for either ON/OFF
    • PWM Setup: Extended Control -> PWM Output 1 or 2
    • Outputs are low side (Pull to Ground)
    • Each capable of up to 6A
  • (7) Digital Inputs:
    Configurable for 12V trigger inputs
  • Digital Inputs 1, 2 & 3 – pre-configured in DD-EFI Dashboards for
    • Provided T-Tap Wire Connector(s) for easy connection
    • Left Turn Signal – Digital Input 1
    • Right Turn Signal – Digital Input 2

  • Push Button Start
    • Setup: Extended Control -> Push Button Start
    • Input Port
      • Select one of the available Digital Inputs
      • This typically comes from the output of the push start button; the inputs are preconfigured for 12v input.
    • Output Port
      • Select one of the available PWM Outputs
      • These outputs provide a ground signal and are typically wired to a relay that will provide the 12v to the starter solenoid.
  • Examples of other Digital Inputs uses:
    • Factory Indicators – Seat Belts, Low Level Indicators, etc.
    • AC Idle Up
    • Launch Control
