I don’t want to mount anything over the radio as that’s where I put my sunglasses case and I like that little cubby type area in general to stay clear.

So I like the Ultragauge there as it makes it really easy to see quickly- and I’m a nut about checking temp all the time. There are a million mounting locations I’ve seen, but I like the visibility of where it is. I’ve used the phone applications for quite a few years on multiple vehicles. They are great, but it takes time to connect (if BT or WiFi) and it gets to be a hassle over time. The UG is very simple, you can program some other info to show up (that is admittedly a little useless aside from voltage) but I like it’s there, the polling rate is as good as I’d want and it’s always on.

I can’t recall if the S12 port as a dimmer or not on it (just checked my notes too but I don’t have it), but when I’ve needed to be attached to the dimmer for other reasons, I used the cigarette lighter dimmer so I didn’t mess with any other ports. I bet it’s in the Rave or the electrical library you can D/L and I’d be pretty positive you could find that pin out with Google fu as I think that’s how I even got the idea for it in the first place. Again, if you know someone with a parts truck or there is a yard somewhere close, just clip the wiper motor plug with a few inches and you have the cleanest possible install.

 

Definitely will have to check the D2 at the junkyard for that connector when I’m able to get to it, but for now I just need to get things connected however I can to be able to do the tests needed. I’ll get that connection going. Doesn’t that suck for the people who want to buy the motor, though? No one can find that plug otherwise?

 

There are a few empty screw holes and a grounding screw I had just happened to fit pretty well, so I think that’ll be alright.
