How to connect stock boost/oil gauge panel in P11?

So I've got a GTiR motor installed in a P11 Primera

I bought the car silver...and the original owner had the GTiR OEM gauge cluster in the centre dash - but it's not connected to anything. The jack to the back of it just hangs out. I doubt that there is an extra harness coming out of the ECU to connect this...although the light in it works.....:shock: But I would like to get the gauges working...Can anyone help me out here? I don't mind hardwiring it into the ECU harness if necessary. I looked at the manual and the wiring diagrams for the gauges...but can't figure out what/where the gauge wires should connect to. I have installed separate (Autometer) mechanical boost and water temp gauges though....Thanks.

I think they all go to senders located in the engine bay; if you don't have them all, I'm guessing it's hard to wire them up.
For example; to get that factory boost gauge to work you'll need the sensor on the right side of the engine bay just behind the air box (with a vacuum line going to it).
Likewise, I think the oil temperature gauge has a different sender from the one the input the ECU uses... I don't know about pressure.

You might be better off putting after-market gauges (completed with new senders) into the original mounting spot.

It's got nothing to do with the ECU, you'll have to wire up the guages to the sensors on the engine (and the boost sensor)
