Would like to help but a little more information might facilitate that. Just 
HOW do you have it wired up? Is the #1 terminal hooked up to the dash lite (or 
is it #2?) . Is the #2 terminal hooked to the junction block? Remember that 
the CC book shows a car connector in the wiring diagram. Did you properly 
convert that over to the FC connector? Or did you connect it someplace else? Are 
you sure that you didn't mess something else up since the dash light is 
disconnected by the ign switch when in the off position?
Regards,
Bob Helt
