70 Wiring Dakota Digital Gauge Change

[CobraMan 10]

I'm going nuts trying to locate the wiring diagram that reflects the color codes in the "Plug" that snaps from the wiring harness the the Dash Cluster.

 

I'm changing over from the stock analog setup to the Dakota Digital set. Their box claims to make it easy (If you know what the current wires do what...)

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Drop Midlife a PM he should be able to hook you up.

Do you have a factory tach or standard dash cluster? It makes a difference...I can list the wire colors, their position on the factory plug and their function.

Midlife,

 

Current configuration is a Non Tach

Here's a link to the job being performed, however, the wiring description is lacking.

Very handy info Midlife, I've got a Dakota Digital cluster coming and don't like wiring at the best of times.

I am a beginner of the Google+ suite but I gave it a try. I'm hoping to get answers on what these wires, "Duties" are. And, how they should be properly configured.

 

Once you land on my Google+ page, Select the photo block for expanded pics.
