The gauge is a direct plug in on 2011 or newer Softail and 2012 or newer Dyna. The only wiring, which is optional,
is for the auxiliary pressure/temp gauges if you choose.
STATUS AND WARNING INDICATORS
The high beam, turn signals, low oil, and neutral indicators are powered
by the gauge and are activated by the stock wiring harness.
Several indicators are supplied on the stock wiring harness. Some of
these may not be active on your motorcycle. These include the security (red
key symbol), engine (red ‘E’), ABS (red ‘ABS’), low fuel (amber fuel pump
symbol), and cruise control (green arrow and circle symbol).

The SEN-1043 is a one-wire sender and grounds through its body. Connect the
terminal on the end of the sender to the blue wire. Make sure the sender
threads are able to make a metal-to-metal connection to complete the ground.
The SEN-1044 is a two-wire sender. Connect the sender red wire to the gauge
blue wire and connect the sender black wire to the gauge black wire.

LOW VOLTAGE WARNING
When the voltage drops below the warning limit with the engine running, “LO” and your current voltage will be
displayed (default warning limit is 11.0V).
SPEEDOMETER
The speedometer is read from the engine control module (ECM) data bus. This can be calibrated to allow for
differences in tires or gearing. Calibration is discussed in a later section.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer is read from the ECM data bus.
The tachometer needle displays RPM x1000 with a range of 350 – 8000 RPM. The RPM can also optionally be
shown on the message display.
CLOCK
The clock uses a 12 hour format and can be set by pressing and holding the switch while the clock is displayed.
After the switch is held for a few seconds the hours will begin flashing. Momentarily pressing the switch will change the
hours, holding the switch will move to the minute set and the minutes will begin flashing. Momentarily pressing the switch
will now change the minutes. Holding the switch will exit the clock set mode.
