(I also posted this in the Freightliner section)

Our Allegro has Banks electric boost and EGT gauges. I'm pretty sure they're 'add-ons', since they don''t match any of the other gauges (they're on the far left)

Both are dead as doornails...

The electric feed is gray-covered with 5 wires.
The boost gauge has a white wire to + and a black wire to -
The EGT gauge has a red wire to + and a black wire to -
The 5th wire is a lonely green wire, with a male spade plug that's just dangling, not connected to anything. There's no other connection point on the gauges...

FWIW, the light wires have never been connected, which is another reason I suspect Tiffin didn't install them...

I don't know if any other Banks stuff has been installed? (sending units at least?) And I've spent an hour online trying to find an owners/installation manual, with no success. All I DID find is that in all of wiring diagrams I found, none contains any green wire? I know that green wires in AC apps are always ground wires, and I could probably get away with grounding it just to see what happens, but... ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Play it forward.
I have the banks TLC kit on my Dodge Ram and I called Banks at 888-839-2700 in the Los Angeles area and the sent me down loadable installation instructions for the turbo system, the torque loc trans kit and torque converter.
Call between 7.am and 5.pm Pacific time.
I hope this helps. Lyledavid
