there are three terminals on the Moroso Electric Valve
2 on the solenoid itself and 1 on the solenoid bracket.


The power wire goes to the 12v terminal (as I assume you already have it)

the remaining two terminals must BOTH be tied to ground, this is easily accomplished by tying the two together with a jumper wire and then running a single wire to ground, but you can run full wires to the ground point for both otherwise, same thing either way.




If you start the car and run it for a bit (rev it a little too) so that the accumulator has a decent amount of pressurized oil in it, after you shut the car off you will be able to turn it on and watch the gauge reflect the repressurization of the system. (assuming of-course your gauge is mechanical or electric with power to it)


BTW, I recommend that after filling your oil pan with the proper amount of oil for the whole system, you pull the dip stick and scribe a new line for full to reflect normal full plus the accumulator oil. Then whenever you decide to check your oil, turn the accumulator switch on and let the car sit for 10-15 min to ensure all the oil has drained back into the pan, this will allow for the most accurate monitoring of system oil level.
