Default Trim Gauge Installation

I have a 1996 Evinrude 200. I have two wires coming from the sending unit white/tan and black and tan. I have connected the white/tan to the signal input on the gauge and I' not sure where to connect the black/tan wire. The old gauge was not working and the black/tan wire was just hanging loose with a broken connector. I checked the sender and I'm getting the proper resistance. I tried to ground the black/tan to ground but it didn't work. I'm also using the adapter for 1986 controls since I just re-powered with a rebuilt 1996 200 Evinrude.

Thanks ahead of time!!

The black and tan goes to ground I believe IIRC.

I tried that. The thing pegs to the left when I ground the stupid wire.

on the trim sender you should only have two wires comming from in. a tan/white and then the short black wire grounds out to the bolt. the guage needs a 12v and a ground then put the tan white to the sig input. should work unless you have a guage thats for a yam or merc.
