Wiring Problem

[V7X]

Okay so i bought this laser for cheap because I knew it had some problems here is the most recent one I have found. The guy who had it before me tried to wire up the boost gauge to the dimmer switch. Needless to say it didn't go well for him. There are extra lengths soldered on to the orignal wires. And he said he fried the dimmer switch according to him. (Smoke was coming out of it.) I replaced the dimmer switch and I still don't have gauge lights or tailight(except under braking).

Any help I would greatly appreciate.!!!!!!

Oooh and the fuses are all okay i checked them.

On the dimmer, the black wire (pin 3) goes to ground, the green/white (pin 4) to tail light relay (this is +12v when lights are on), and the black/yellow (pin 2) goes to the dash lights (this is the return to ground side - the other side of the dash lights is connected to +12v). Note the dimmer is connected to the return to ground side of the dash lights - this is what sometimes screws people up. You should connect one side (+ if it's marked) of your boost gauge light to pin 4 and the other to pin 2 (Note this is only for the light of the boost gauge).
