dohpredator was right. There is a 1/4" square hole be hind the control module, If you carefully push in the hole the plug in for the gauges will pop out. Thanks to your video and the comments, I was able to add the gauges to my non performance pack mustang. The boost works, but not the oil gauge. If you would let me know how you got yours to work. Its to bad you didn't know about the plug. You did a great job wiring all that yourself.
Got this for Keith: tom tomtam70 I have a 3" Catless downpipe. You get the oil pressure gauge turned on in a custom tune file. Your pro tuner will be able to select an option for the pressure transducer.
Alex Mora no splicing was needed at all on my premium EB... Find the 4 pin connector cable already there, behind that hole....I used a small screwdriver to push it back and then grab the whole cable assembly from behind. What I also found out, was that the two PP vents are spread further apart and I had to do additional cutting of the two outside plastic supply ports to allow the new PP dash trim to fit nicely... Of course it goes without saying that the tabs on all the dash trim panels break easily, so you really don't want to put it on and off to often... Good luck
alex modic gotcha! One last question, was the connector loose in the hole you mentioned or it was connected to something? Thanks for the heads up on the vents! I assumed they would align as if it were the 3 vents but it makes sense they’ll be pushed out a bit more
On your first video at 20minutes and 26 seconds you will see a square hole above your index finger that is the factory connector for the gauges. If you reach in behind the plastic you can unplug it and plug it to your gauges that is a storage place for the connector because you didn't order the performance package
dohpredator mine only has a blank plastic piece there is no plug behind the plastic. I can feel the shape of a plug but nothing there? 2016 Mustang Ecoboost Premium.
I heard on the 2018+, there is a plug behind the radio, where you can just plug the Performance Pack wire harness in without having to splice any wires. Then, have it tuned to turn on that data point.
Video very usefull! But i have a question that it doesn’t show: the passage from the oil sensor with 1 pin to the one with 3 pins on the engine and the wiring. I need to understang just this passage, the rest of the dash montage is clear. Thx in advance.
help - i connected the #1 power and #4 ground (i'm not going to find or connect the oil pressure sensor) - and it lights up, but when i shut off the engine and power the guages stay lit - any idea why ? i don't want to drain my battery
Like the video. I just put the gauges in my 2016 gt. Question to make the oil gauge work. On the video you showed where you were going to pull power for the sending unit is that all you did you make it work. Or was there more to it.
you did not need to buy the connector for the gauges the connector is already there from the factory. when you unplug your screen and remove it. look at the dash where it came from you will see a square hole with a connector in it reach around to the back and unplug it that is the connector for the gauges. and you should have blocked off the hole for the vent not doing so lets hot and cold air blow on your gauges and behind your dash.all I would to know is where did you get your wiring diagrams at
This is confirmed if you have a premium Mustang. I removed my 8 inch screen and behind black plastic shield was the factory 4 pin pigtail. I plugged this into the gauge and it works perfectly ( except for oil pressure reading of course ). I also have a base model Mustang which does NOT have the factory pigtail.

Thank you so much I just completed the same set up and am following the oil pressure set up in the thread below hope you guys post your results, also if there is a read out on the dash in the app window of the oil pressure is there any way that the computer can just send the reading to the new gauge/

Hi Keith I have couple of questions for you, before I can get my tune done. Is your Mustang a GT? If not, exactly what make, model and year is your mustang? IE 2016 Mustang ecoboost premium 2.3L non-performance pack. Thanks for your responses.
The physical sending unit is not required. Oil pressure can be inferred (derived) from other parameters. You must have a custom tune that activates the performance pack feature with the gauges. I used Adam from tune+
Hi Guys, I’m Hoping someone can help me! I’ve installed these gauges! Done all this procedure. But my colour doesn’t work! Gauges turn on bright for one second when ignition is on then goes dull white. I had it working when I tested it at the start. Is there something I blew whilst installing ? Or something I’m missing? Really hoping someone can help me please. Thanks
Question, i have a mustang v6 2016 so basically what I need for this project is the 4 wires pigtail that connect it to the back of the gauge cluster , PP gauge cluster found on GT mustang since im running a NA 3.7 , and PP dash trim and the rest is the wiring like you mentioned and trimming of the dash... after the installation is to have it tune by mpt? I have mpt tunes already btw ? Please and thank you for reading
I been wondering if anyone came across any issues with both gauges malfunctioning. I followed instructions on first page after carefully reading. Made sure to solder everything good and shrink wrap it. When everything was done turned car on and gauges powered on, my color worked fine but it will change from whatever color i set it back to white then completely turns off. Moments after turns back one changes to my color and runs good for a minute. Then it repeats its self. I have a 2015 GT premium running PP gauges from a GT not EB.
@@keithstilson Can explain a little more about swaping wires at the PCM. Are talking about when using a 3 wire plug and oil pressure sending unit? Thanks
Has anyone done this on a v6 Mustang, base model. I have everything done and just need to get the oil pressure gauge to work. Will I need a tuner and a special tune that will include the oil pressure activating. One thing that doesn't make sense to me. If I plug in my OBDII blue tooth scanner, I can use the gauges in the app and it shows oil pressure. It is weird that you are still tapped into the can + and - but the gauge will not see the oil pressure unless activated. Thanks
Hello, I recently installed the digital dash into my non-PP ecoboost premium Mustang. I do not have the separate gauge gauges but the digital dash has an actual oil pressure gauge that I am trying to get to work. How did you wire the three wire oil pressure sensor? Was pin one the same for both the switch and sensor or were they different? Could you please post wiring instructions.
Hey Keith, awesome info and thanks for sharing. Can you post the link for the upgrade that was done to the V6. I've searched but just couldn't find it. Thanks.
Does anyone know the correct part number and Vin number for the dash trim cover with the 2 vents and center gauges . I have been to every dealer here in Phoenix and they are F__KING A__HOLES. I went so far as to look at all the Mustangs at Berge Ford , found one with the gauges, took a picture of the car and the Vin number and they still say it's wrong.
Henry Hentzschel it is possible to have your tuner update the PCM modules with the performance pack version. However, you will get a low pressure oil light because the wiring to the ECU will no longer be valid. it's more headache then it's worth. I am going to grab a second analog sending unit to drive the stepper motor directly in the gauge.
I already checked the wiring diagram. Its to change the signal from PIN 48 to 57 on the PCM and the 2 other wires PCM signal return wire. In the PCM software is a General setup possible from Oilpressure switch to Oil pressure tranducer. I think than it should work... but not sure. (its a 5.0)
Henry Hentzschel interesting, all diagrams I looked at from Ford made it impossible to figure out the wiring differences between performance pack and non performance pack. Are you in an Ecoboost or GT?
Would a shop be able to do this for me to get a cleaner install? I don't have all the tools I would need. How much would that cost? Reason I ask is because I can't find a car in my budget near me with all the packages I want (GT, premium, performance, 401a, shadow black, 6 speed manual)
