Help please. Just about to install a voltage regulator so that my fuel guage and temp gauge doesn't go up and down as I rev the car up.
Question:- How do I wire it up? Please see photo. Supplied by Europa but no instructions.
Is it 12V in and then the regulated 12 V come out the "B" terminal?
Thanks Mark

Just found out that the B terminal is for a switched live, the others go to the temp and fuel guage.
Sounds right to me mate. Normally +12V to regulator, then regulator to guage, and guage to earth as far as I know.

I called Caerbont in Swansea, They are the people who service and repair Smiths guages. Wiring is the B terminal to the 12V supply, the other to the guages.
