Hi All

 

I have noticed that my interior lighting on the roof and the door light on the dash is not coming on since I fitted my boost gauge to where the clock was located. Are these linked in any way? Also the car has started to drain its battery as it hasn't had enough power over the last two days.

 

Something is still drawing power. I wired the boost gauge to the cigarette socket for the ignition live but don't know why the interior lighting is not coming on and the battery now keeps draining.

 

Thanks

 

Paul

Sounds like it's wired incorrectly bud. IIRC the interior lights and the clock are linked through the same fuse. If your battery is draining it sounds like something is creating a short, but not enough to blow a fuse. Unplug the boost gauge and see if the light starts working again.
