The temp wire(dark green) goes from the sending unit on the engine, to one side(terminal) of the gauge. The other terminal(w/pink wire) of the gauge should have power(12v) with the key on. There should also be a small, flat resistor connected between the two terminals on the back of the gauge. There should also be a black wire on there, that is the ground.
