Agreed, but that's the way it came. I do plan on taking if off and "patinaing" it some way or another. If I could find an old beat up one I'd trade for it.
When I got this cruiser it had a homemade aux tank in it, but it wasn't functioning. I finally got around to cleaning it up and getting it working. Here are some pics of it.
It does make sense to me to have the switch in the on position otherwise it's not getting any signal at all. This is my 5th cruiser with a DD and I've had pretty good luck with them thus far.
I played around with it today and figured it out. I do have both sending units with the same ohms and they are both grounded together with the ground going to the DD brain as I call it. What I've found is that the switch must be in either on position when you turn the key. If not, the DD is...
Has anyone hooked up a Dakota Digital cluster with 2 fuel tanks. I'm trying to do it with a DPDT switch, but I keep getting a EEE fuel error on the display. I've followed Downey's general directions on how to wire it up and the plumbing, but it seems like I'm missing a step here or there???
