Thanks for visiting. I started this channel to share knowledge on the Holley Pro Dash and the Holley Terminator X. When I bought the Terminator and Pro Dash there didn't seem to be much documented on how to setup things like a fuel level gauge or turn signal indicators. I wanted to make it easy for people to find that information, so I titled each video what I suspected the average person might type into Google.
Over time I started adding videos of working on my 1989 Camaro, and some other things from my life. Anyways, thanks for stopping by, and I hope that you gained some value in my content.
So with this setup, you can have up to 8 virtual switches? 4 on the 4 ssr pins and 4 on the regular switch pins (to say fans or other, regular, relay)?
@shawnhanifan2500 correct, and those switches can be automated, I have a more recent video showing how you do that. My trans cooler fan comes on above 150 I think, and turns off below 120, and also turns off above 40 MPH.
@TrailerParkMotorsports awesome. I'm getting to wire my dash in this week. I already have a bank of old school relays in place to use so I'll do that, and pre-wire a few of the SSRs for future use with the now $215+ dollar MSD unit. Thsnks for the quick response!
@jsteed4388 it's not mine, it's a coworker of mine, Brent. He said there are still a lot of good parts on the car, but the chassis and cage are done for. He's already on the lookout for a rust free roller.
Yes, you absolutely can. You'd wire that up the same as you would using IO7 and the sensor ground. The only difference with using another input is that it doesn't have the default smoothing that accounts for fuel slosh, however you should be able to add that smoothing feature manually.
Caution contents under extreme pressure! Let's set the mood, christmas eve several years ago. My man Doug hooked it up with a brand new stroud chute, this steve guy after a few bourbons opens his new gift to himself. Looks down and goes hmmmm weird nail in that loop, pulls said nail out and pow. Right in the kisser. Wakes up a few minutes later missing his glasses but not spilling any bourbon. Great success!
I'm looking forward to spending more time in it. It won't take much to make it great. Swap out the lights, hang some banners, posters, and such, and install a lift.
4:05 another question here. Doing a pro dash on a buddies car, and when I do this the ohms on the bottom is ohms X 1000. And I hit linear x I think and the bottom number change to 0 and the gauge says 1 or 2.
I used an install kit from Summit which had a few lengths of brake line and an assortment of fittings. I believe the line lock uses 1/8th NPT ports on it, although it's been a while since I did the install.
Well, they have been on for 7 months now, and I've driven across the country twice since finishing the install. They are in the same condition as the day that I've installed them. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@TrailerParkMotorsports my concern was do they droop or shift at all. I’m looking at getting these for a project and didn’t want to constantly adjust them.
Hey thanks for this video man I have the same lights and am going to do the installation this weekend. The only thing I'm not quite sure of is getting the switch mounted to the dash - did you disconnect the wires from the switch before drilling your hole? Could you share how it's done? I'm looking at my switch and the wires a pretty tight in there and I don't want to break anything. Again, thanks for the video its really helpful
Thanks for watching and commenting. If I remember correctly, the switch has a short length of wire with a small connector to allow you to pass it through the dash.
Thanks for watching and commenting. I have a video called "How to add a gauge" on my channel, I believe that will answer all of your questions. I also have a video where I added an oil cooler and went through the process of adding the gauges on there as well.
On the Pro dash I have my gauge connected the same as you and configured the same. I do not get any readings. Does the sensor ground on pin 26 need to be hooked up since I'm using a (sensor) input on IO7?
I've been working on an update to this video, which would help answer your question. The whole circuit needs to be grounded. When I first made this video, the sensor grounded through the tank, along with the pump. It worked, but the more accurate way is to ground the level sensor to the sensor ground on the dash. When I switched to the plastic 4th gen tank, I revised the level sensor to this method. This does mean that the pump will need to have a separate ground, the Pro Dash would have a short life if you grounded fuel pumps to it. I hope this answered your question, thanks for watching and commenting.
@TrailerParkMotorsports yes sir. That helps. I figured the pin labeled "sensor ground" was needed to ground a sensor I wired in, but there is little to no talk of what that pin actually does. I can confirm that the sending unit grounded to the battery and the dash grounded to the battery does not have sufficient ground on that circuit for the gauhe to work. Im running an aeromotive tank with separate ground for pump and sending unit. Ill run the sensor ground tomorrow and update my video. Thanks again!!
Thanks for watching and commenting. The scaling for the Low Doller 3 BAR sensor is as follows. voltage/KPA/PSI 0.50/0/-14.5 0.77/20/-11.6 1.03/40/-8.7 1.30/60/-5.8 1.57/80/-2.9 1.83/100/0.0 2.10/120/2.9 2.37/140/5.8 2.63/160/8.7 2.90/180/11.6 3.17/200/14.5 3.43/220/17.4 3.70/240/20.3 3.97/260/23.2 4.23/280/26.1 4.50/300/29.0
Looking for some help. I installed the Motion race works shock travel sensor on my manual valve body 4l80 so i can log and see what gear it’s is in. I’m running that sensor to my pro dash and can’t get it to work. I know Devon has a video on his channel but he is using an input on the dominator. I’m using the termx but i’m out of inputs on it and the can io module as well. That’s why i have it wired to the pro dash. Can you help?
Thanks for watching and commenting. Looking at the Pro Dash pin map, it looks like you could wire up that travel sensor to inputs 1-13 and then set it up the same way on the Pro Dash that Devon showed. I'd look at using inputs 1 or 2, as they can only be a custom 5v input, as opposed to the other inputs being more versatile. It really should just be a matter of configuring the indicator lights based on the voltage of the sensor. Another thing has me very curious about your setup, though. You said that you're out of IO on the Terminator X and the CAN IO module? What else do you have going on for sensors and such?
Once I move in the next month or so, I'll be doing a lot more work with the different sensors, particularly Rife, and showing the capabilities on here and perhaps some other channels.
@@TrailerParkMotorsports ok i’ll have to do some more research. I’ve got it connected to pin 30 which should be input 8. Then i’m using the 5v and sensor ground pins from the pro dash.
Input 8 is fine. That channel does custom 5v among some other things. 5v and sensor ground are also correct. At this point now you just need to get the voltage of the sensor in each shifter position and then map that to the indicator on the dash layout.
@@TrailerParkMotorsports I think I’m still going to use it just so I can set everything in the laptop software. This seems more like a feature they added to entice people to buy the standalone dashes. I’m wondering why they didn’t just make it configurable in the software over CAN like the inputs or the IOs on the expansion modules.
