Over the years Sketch Wiring is something that has always bothered me and I continue to try and get better at it. So today I wanted to show ya'll how I wire in my gauges. So hopefully this video helps! We are installing our AEM Wideband, Water Temp, Boost, and oil pressure gauges into my 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 8.

Electrical/automation engineer here. Solder is a far superior electrical connection when compared to butt splices. It ensures full electron flow as apposed to crimps that can become loose over time due to normal heat cycles of the seasons. That being said, you def want to use proper heatshrink etc. BTW...LOVE your videos!!!! Can hardly wait for the STI 2.0!!!

I've always been under the assumption that for Motorsports wiring solder will crack from vibration and break over time leading to a weak connection? 🤔 and thank you! That should be a fun one to do here soon. Already miss that car 🔥

@@Smeedia This is the first time you've ever responded to me. Haha, but my opinion was only that solder is much like welding, in that the two structure elements become one. But later in your video the butt crimp ends were absolutely the way it should have been done. I was thinking splice instead of termination point. My bad. Although you may be referring to unleaded solder. leaded solder is still available and it won't crack etc. Cool thing to know...NASA only allows a splice if done with solder and in a certain way. Interesting stuff. Go live again soon so I can DOE NO!

Solder is not for motorsport use. You will very rarely find solder on a motorsport harness. A proper crimp is much stronger. Soldering a pcb and electronics is different than soldering wires that are under a lot of heat and stress. 2 different applications. I would also recommend if possible depinning the connectors and rerunning one single wire instead of a bunch of crimps. I recommend taking some HP Academy classes on motorsport wiring.

Small point to note but the add-a-fuses are technically directional. These descriptions are when you are looking at the add-a-fuse with the pigtail on the RIGHT side. In the "correct" orientation 12V runs up the left pin, splits between the 2 fuses, and then down the pigtail. In the other orientation 12V runs up the right, through the spot where the existing fuse goes, then goes through the new fuse and down the pigtail. Not saying you can't run the fuses in series but the intent of an add-a-fuse is to run the circuits in parallel so you can bump up the fuse size of the new circuit if you wish. I added heated side mirrors to a car that already had a circuit for them, but trying to find the wiring wasn't worth it. So I only ran a fuse for my new circuit and left the existing open. I learned this about add-a-fuses the hard way.

So, kind of some constructive criticism lol. The only reason I would use an add a fuse would be to power a relay. Relays dont take much power at all. Less risk there. So use the add a fuse to power a relay for the 12v switch source then have an additional fuseblock for all your 12v switch sources. You can power all your gauges from the fuse block and have additional sources for other things later. Saying add a fuse and proper hook up just doesn't quite go together lol. Love your videos keep up the good work.

Man all that gauge wiring makes having a single CAN Gauge feel like a lifesaver. One gauge that can display anything the ECU sees. Im using mine for CANLambda, boost, oil pressure, IAT, Coolant temp, battery Voltage. Obviously you need a CAN Capable ECU. Also, if you wanted to minimalize those power and ground wiring, you could run the Add-a-fuse to a small bussbar behind the gauges and power them all there. Same thing for the ground. Good work though my dude!

That way nothing will move as much and they usually come with a magnifying glass for small jobs. And your butt joint crimp connectors. I love the ones with solder in them, weatherproof and it solders the wires when you heat gun them for a much better connection

@@Smeedia you got it man! I don't know if you're new gauges came yet but if they did and they work then the gauges were definitely at fault. If you Ohm the ground wire at the gauges connectors side with ground and there's high OHMs then there's a break in the ground or something similar and it was likely just the harness.

Can a man ask for a CANBUS feature on what to know and how to set it up? I’d like to get a screen, maybe some sensors, etc, and honestly not sure where to start. For example, I’d like to add a wideband to my tune, but I don’t think you can now? I’d like to understand how to get various CAN devices communicating and logging. Haltech has been extremely understanding with my amateur-hour questions, and I know HP University could take me through it. Just curious if you could teach/show th topic in the way you do it.

@@Smeedia well, see - I don’t know. I don’t have any problem with Cobb’s GreenSpeed for modding my daily, but the idea of a Haltech ECU with the Haltech IC7 is really appealing, but, again… trying to make sure I fully understand how best to take advantage of CANBUS and how to budget for maximizing options/sensors/features. The AEM dash and feature set is really appealing, but I don’t believe there’s a Subaru-compatible ECU(?). Lots to learn and want to make sure I’m not just following instructions, but understanding the underlying technology and how to properly deploy it for maximum utility.

It seems like AEM gauges are shit. Correct me if I’m wrong but spending $200 plus on gauges should come with acknowledgment that they work. Yet I’ve seen multiple videos of them not working. Do they not test them before the hit the product line?

They slap a QC sticker on the gauge but I don't think they actually test them 😮‍💨

I have that gauge in my 93 honda integra and it works fine so it might just be the gauge itself honestly because I changed the sensor on my temp gauge and it still reads wrong so I'm sure if I get a new gauge it will work fine gauges come junk all the time once I bought a brand new tbi holley 670cfm for my 92z71 and out the box had a bad injector and they ate 137 for one😢😂 so yea products that ate bad get placed on the shelves and Noone knows it but the people who get screwed when they end up with that bad part that seems new

That brass oil pressure sensor will crap out on you due to vibrations etc.(ask me how I know) when it does it’ll scare the crap out of you cause the oil pressure will be at 0 on start up and gradually increase, when it happens replace it with a stainless steel sensor

We don't wanna calltag it and it ain't worth getting back here to then send back to mfgr. Just break it dude.
