I have a instrumental panel with the oval speedometer. The light is in the center of the panel. I removed the panel to reverse the wires on the ammeter as it was reading backwards It reads normal now. I noticed the wire for the light was not connected to anything(I recently acquired the car) Could someone tell me how to wire it up. I tried to connect it to the key and it would only light when the key was off tried the other terminal and it would not work. I do not know how it was wired originally. Thank You.
