My Turbo Gauge Light

[JP80]

um, okay

so last night i noticed the light behind my turbo gauge continues to stay on like, all the time

it's on the side pillar and it's the only gauge in that area.

i have NO idea how long it's been doing this, but it feels a little warm to touch - not like "burst into flames" warm, but like "yep, that light sure is on" warm

usually i leave car, turbo timer keeps going and everything "turning off" takes care of itself

not anymore it would seem

so how bad could this be on a scale of say, 10?

10 being "mang your cars prolly a molten mess by now" 1 being "i wish i had such a fly night-light"

any help gets high fives

ta..

Leave it for a while so that everything else turns off, then put use a multimeter on the battery to see how much current it is drawing. If its too much, then its a problem

It's connected wrong. Fix it!

Skylines have sh*t batteries, no doubt leave it a week and it'll drain it completely!

I want a high 5....

Sound like whoever wired the gauge up, wired the ACC trigger to permanent 12V+.

If its LED based it won't kill your battery anytime soon, but if its incandescent based, start saving for a new battery if you leave it to long.
