Hi all, a couple of years ago I installed the tripe HSV binnacle guage pod in my ute (2008 VE SSV). The install went fine, all gauges work perfect.
The issue I've had since then is the backlight for the guages, it doesn't quite match the dash guages backlight.
Basically the binnacles backlights are allways on, even when the dash lights are off.
I've tried connecting the backlight cable from the binnacles to the yellow wire on the headlight switch, when I do, the backlights are allways on.
I've tried connecting it to pin 24 of the brown bcm plug but this means they only turn on when the ignition is on, if I turn the headlights on when the ignition is off, nothing happens.
So both ways to wire it up behave in a different way and neither match the main dash backlight.
Any ideas?
