there is an earth cable behind the dash with a ring terminal on, it go's on the back of the gauge, it could be that, just a standard black wire with a ring on the end, I spent a week trying to find where it fitted, or the voltage regulator thingy has gone a knacker, I've had to go through all the electrics on my fox, they have been all over the place, I feel i'm really getting to know them now, anything ya want advice on i'll try to check on here once/twice a week
