Quick question on my switchs(pics)

I'm working on my electrical system and I was thinking of daisy chaining my switchs. I have 6 push pull switchs. Can I daisy chain them together or I have to run each switch to the fuse panel? Thanks

I don't know what your switches run.... but as long as the wire/circuit is big enough to carry the load of all three switch loads you should be ok...... only other issue with daisy chaining is if you have a problem with that circuit you loose power to all switches... if your bilge pump or nav lights are on that circuit it could be a potential problem.

It's really not the best way to do it..... you may have certain items that will not be protected by the proper size fuse.

Help with gauges

Help with gauges

I know this subject has been beaten up a million times but I need help with this. I have 3 switchs which include tach, fuel and what I think is volts. I noticed the tach has 4 wires. Neg, pos and ignition oh yeah and light also. The light goes to "I" and the three other wires are going to the ignition switch as shown in the pics. When I looked at the gauge diagram on this forum,mine is a lot different. Is mine a correct way of wiring? I would like to daisy chain all the gauges together. Can I keep the wiring at tach and just daisy the other two? And please let me know what other gauge this is. Thanks guys

The black gauge is a trim gauge...... you can daisy chain the lights to all gauges with no issues.....

So I can just run each wire from the tach to my fuel gauge? Example: from the ground from the tach to ground on the fuel, light to light and so on...... Thanks
