A quick wiring question: On my Beedee guages for oil press., water temp, am I correct in assuming that the "I" terminal is for a switched 12V source (i.e. ignition), and that the "S" terminals are for the senders?
Thanks,
SteveM.

That sounds correct to me, you should also have a ground. Ignition should connect to hot only when the key is on side of the ignition switch. While S goes to the gauge directly and the sending unit of whatever you are trying to read.
Good Luck.

Yep, I had the ground and lighting circuits figured out, and I thought that the I and S were correct, but I wanted to check here before wiring the guages up.
