Speedhut 4″ Porsche Series Water Temp / Fuel Level Gauge (R4-DG3-PCH)

The Speedhut 4″ Porsche Series Water Temp / Fuel Level Gauge (R4-DG3-PCH) offers a convenient and stylish solution for monitoring two critical vehicle functions in one compact unit. Designed with the aesthetics of Porsche vehicles in mind, this 4-inch gauge provides accurate readings of both your engine’s water temperature and the fuel level in your tank. Equipped with advanced technology and built with quality components, this dual gauge ensures reliable performance and seamless integration into your dashboard. It ships with the necessary wiring and a temperature sensor to facilitate installation.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Dual Monitoring: Simultaneously displays both water temperature (ranging from 120 to 260 degrees Fahrenheit) and fuel level (from Empty to Full) in a single, easy-to-read 4-inch gauge.
• Porsche-Inspired Style: The gauge’s design is specifically crafted to complement the interior styling of Porsche vehicles, offering a cohesive and factory-like appearance.
• Accurate Readings: Features an internal microprocessor for precise measurements and a high-torque stepper motor for smooth and accurate pointer movement, ensuring reliable information even under demanding driving conditions.
• Programmable Fuel Level: The fuel level portion of the gauge can be calibrated to work with a variety of fuel level senders (resistance under 300 ohms), providing flexibility for different setups.
• Integrated Warning Light: Includes a built-in warning light to alert you to potential issues, enhancing vehicle safety and allowing for timely attention to critical parameters.
• Complete Wiring Included: Ships with all the essential wiring harnesses (2-Wire Cable, 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness, Temperature Gauge Wiring Harness) for a straightforward electrical connection.
• Temperature Sensor Included: Comes with a dedicated Speedhut temperature sensor, ensuring compatibility and accurate water temperature readings right out of the box.
• Easy Installation: Designed with a spin-lock ring mechanism, simplifying the mounting process into a standard 3.93-inch (100mm) dashboard opening.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Warning Light: Yes
• Included:
  • Wiring Harness (2-Wire Cable)
  • 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness
  • Temperature Gauge Wiring Harness (2-Wire Cable)
  • Speedhut Temperature Sensor

HOW TO USE:

• Mount the Gauge: Locate a suitable 3.93-inch (100mm) diameter opening in your dashboard. Insert the gauge into the opening from the front. Secure it from the back using the spin-lock ring.
• Connect the Power and Lighting: Attach the 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness to the designated terminals on the back of the gauge. Connect the power wire (typically red) to a 12V switched power source and the ground wire (typically black) to a suitable ground point. Connect the lighting wire (often orange or similar) to your vehicle’s lighting circuit if you desire the gauge to illuminate with your headlights.
• Connect the Temperature Sensor: Thread the included Speedhut temperature sensor into the appropriate port on your engine’s cooling system (typically where the original temperature sensor was located or an auxiliary port). Connect the Temperature Gauge Wiring Harness (2-Wire Cable) between the temperature sensor and the corresponding terminals on the back of the gauge.
• Connect the Fuel Level Sender: Connect the Wiring Harness (2-Wire Cable) to the fuel level sender in your fuel tank and then to the designated terminals on the back of the gauge. You may need to consult your vehicle’s wiring diagram or the fuel level sender’s documentation for the correct connections.
• Calibrate the Fuel Level (if necessary): Depending on your fuel level sender, you may need to calibrate the gauge. Refer to the Speedhut documentation for specific instructions on how to program the fuel level readings. This typically involves accessing a calibration mode and observing the gauge readings at empty and full tank levels.
• Test the Gauge: Once all connections are made, turn on your vehicle’s ignition to power the gauge. Verify that the water temperature reading changes as the engine warms up and that the fuel level reading corresponds to the fuel in your tank. Check if the warning light illuminates under appropriate conditions (refer to Speedhut documentation for warning light behavior).
