2004 225 gauge key switch wiring help

[surfnfisher]

Thanks for all the help so far.
Motor is all hooked up and looking good.

I finished wiring the gauges and key switch.
Connected power. Turned key switch, beep, warning lights, turns over. Rpm moves, gauge light on, engine turns over.
When I turn on the running lights, key switch beeps, warning lights on , gauge lights up.

i thought I wired it to only light up with running light switch.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the help.

What did you connect the red/white to, should have gone to the nav light switch? You must be feeding ignition switch power into it.

These Are the faria gauges.
I hooked up the red/white to the nav lights but I combined it with the black and yellow per the Honda gauge faria instructions to have the gauge light on when the nav lights are on. So I will disconnect that and see what happens. Where will the spare black yellow get connected?
Thanks

The black yellow is an optional supply if you want the back lighting on all the time, just leave it disconnected
