Question Pyro reading zero

Okay, finally got my DiPricol gauges in on the weekend thanks to a lotta help and advice from people on here, especially PJ who said I could PM him if I had any questions, he's probably regretting it!

Anyhow, for the pyro I got the power from a spare plug taped under the dash to the right of the pedals. It was a blue/yellow wire which (I think from looking at the shop manual) is for the neutral safety switch for an auto.

Anyhow, sometimes after sitting idling at a light waiting for the green, when I take off the pyro will go to 0 then come back up like normal. I'm guessing this is NOT normal?

It almost seems like I'm losing power to the gauge for a second or something but I checked my connections and all looks good.

Any advice?

Thanks
Will

I think the neutral safety switch for the auto I tapped into is associated with the clutch switch, will look for another feed.
Anyone know of an easy way to get to the back of the cig lighter?

Thumbs up

UPDATE

Do NOT use the blue yellow wire under the dash to power your pyro, it will cause grief.
Changed the feed to my cigar lighter circuit and works fine now!
