Replacing my Autometer Disco gauge with an XD-16. Can I ground everything to the battery (that's how the Autometer was set up,) or do I need to use the frame. Thanks for the help, I just don't want to fry this gauge.

Sorry if that's a really stupid question but I suck at electrical.

Innovate has a prettys specific way to how it has to be grounded. I guess they have it for a reason....
Hey,
I have an XD-16 on my Phazer. According the the set up guide, they want all grounds near each other, but not on the same spot. It will create "noise". The previous owner installed the guage and all grounds go to the voltage regulator. Good luck! Frank.

Do not ground it on the battery. Ground it on the frame, like said they are very spesific on how the different wireing are grounded. Download the install instrucitons from Innovate, it's all in there.
Their tech guy, named Phillepe, is super cool and helpful. Here is a link to the location of the online manual. The quick start guides are really helpful too. Good luck!

Thanks everone. I got something screwed up for sure. I'll download that manual. I ground the blue to a different spot but the gauge is at the same spot as my other gauges. That must be causing the interference.
Will it hurt it to drive it that way?

Maybe not but you cannot trust the readings and then the XD-16 is of no use to you. Wire it exactly as the manual says to have it work correctly.
