Thank you Freyguy

I got it working , on the bench and it shows acc bat volts. Putting it in the truck may take longer.

I am not sure how to hook it to the gas gauge. It is a Ford and I used a 10 ohm resistor. I had checked it last week by jumping an 18 ohm resistor (thats what I had) across the 2 wires that were connected to the tank. When I turned the key on the gauge went to just over 1/2. So 10 ohm's should be right?

Just not sure how this 1 output from the board should hook to the gauge.

Thanks again
Alvin
