I routed a wire from the fuse panel to the gauge, I think it taps into fuse 12 or 13, By using this connection, the gauge gives reading when the key is in the 1st position. THe battery does seem like a logical place though, to get a tru idea of system voltage. I have read some recent posts about the VDO-Volvo volt gauges not being super accurate, I think I will experiment with my DMM this weekend.

Good Luck,

Matt
