I am getting ready to install my gauges in my 06 do I need to put an inline fuse in the keyed 12v power source?


Thanks Nate

 

Certainly wont hurt anything.

 

How about a "how to" write up on the gauge installation.

Wont hurt, but no, I didnt on mine...

 

Is Mopar Mist Gray the same color that is in the 06's it says it goes to 02? I have the light gray interior.

 

I recently install an Autometer electric fuel pressure guage and the directions suggested putting an inline 1 amp fuse on the switched power wire, which I did.

Here's what can happen if you don't! I would STRONGLY suggest it! He wanted to blame the guage which is partly to blame, but a fuse would have eliminated the whole problem. Fuse! Not a circuit breaker or anything but a fuse.

I am not sure but I have the light grey interior and I bought a phantom white rattle can from the local auto paint store and it matched 100% and I got 12 oz for the same price as the Mopar 6 oz. Here is a picture.



Here is the link to my gallery from my guage install.

Thanks for the links guys that is pretty scary about the guy whos truck almost burned down it is safe to say that I will be putting in an inline fuse, and I will also be adding a few inline fuses in my offroad truck that I just installed gauges in.
