Fuse tap for lighted gauges


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a 2016 Silverado LTZ, crew cab, short bed, Z71. I recently added a second battery, thanks to @tenscourts write up http://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/index.php?/topic/192614-Tenscourts'-2016-LTZ/Z71-CCSB-4WD-Silverado

 

I added an autometer voltmeter for the auxiliary battery, I got the gauge reading the voltage and want to hook up the illumination with all of the other lights on the dimmer. Is there a fuse I can tap to accomplish that? Preferably something in cab?

 

Thanks!

There is definitely something you can tap. I did it for my footwell lights. I just can't remember what it is. I started with rgb and they would switch to white then faded out so I changed them to white only. Sorry I can't remember the wire. I'll try to look later.

Just realized I hadn't responded and also the wire I tapped was for the puddle lights which won't help you but I'm sure there is something you can tap. I'll see what I can find if you haven't made any headway.
