I just bought an inclinometer/clinometer... but i cant find any tread on how to get it wired up! i have the plug and play wire harness that came with it.


Anybody gotta a link or knows how?


Thxs!

 

I have one that I just wired into a set of hot wires in the dash, mine was for a right hand drive and the outer case posed a problem for mounting it. Do you guys up north have the cases for left hand drives?

 

Yah i got mine for left hand side! lucky me i guess

 

but how did u wire it?

 

Its only got a dash light in it, so find a place to tap into that.
on first gen 4runners, there is a plug in the dash waiting to hook it up. they pre-wired for it, like several upgrades... I dont know if 2-gen's have the plug.

When i had my 84 4Runner i added an inclinometer to it, all of the holes are already in the under side of the dash pad, you just need to drill them out. When i hooked up the light i tapped into the wiring for the heater control light.

 

i cut the bottom of my right hand drive unit to fit it onto my dash..

to mount I screwed it into the dash mat

its a second gen unit in my 1st gen..

 

How crappy would this look in a 3rd gen?

 

Wire into a hot wire in the dash and ground it to the same wire that hooks into the heater control light. These ground wires all wire through the rheostat (the lil control knob that controls how bright your dash lights are) .. this way it dims with the rest of the lights.

Hardest part is getting the safety pad off (thats what toyota calls the dash).

 

Sweet Thxs guys ill be posting my pics shortly! wasent to dificult to install!

 

a big help guys thanks. I got a line on one now for my 3rd gen.

4crawler takes the thing apart just to see how it works-love it!

Happy Holidays!
