Try reading the directions

Locations for dash power wires and 12V source are in the Oil Gauge DIY in the DIY section.

just a guess from the lack of info provided...

12 volt pos wire
12 volt neg wire
and a driving light wire

If all else fails read the directions

Get an Ammeter not a Volt meter.

www.autometer.com
Theres a page that's Instruction sheets. Look for ammeter instructions.
