Where's a good ground under the dash
Where's a good ground under the dash
Hooking up some guages and instead of running ground wires behind the pcm and out into engine bay, anyone know of a good ground in the cabin maybe under the dash somewhere?
Thanks
Thanks

That nut does not ring a bell but I will look for it.
I was thinking along the lines of a nut, but I guess splicing into another ground wire should work. I have 2 grounds to connect, so just combine them, strip away a bit from the cig. lighter ground wire, and connect all of them together? Would it be ok to just elect. tape all together then? Without looking at the lighter wires in front of me, what color is that ground wire...green?
Thanks all

You can use the cigarette lighter ground or something similar.. I usually stay away from tapping into other grounds just because of having to strip, splice, and tape the wires.. Easier just to unbolt a bolt and place a ground there... I'd stay away from any radio grounds though... Could cause noise in the radio.
