Temp gauge Question

My temp gauge was not working, it would just stay past hot. I changed the temp sensor and I also made sure there was power going to the green wire. I bought a new temp gauge from LMC that showed the actual temp in numbers instead of just H or L. When I took the gauge cluster out I noticed the back of the temp gauge looks like it should have a wire to one of the studs that come out. But there wasn't. Then I read the power for the gauge actually comes from the circuit board. I tested the circuit board and noticed that there was not power to some of the light connections and of course where the temp gauge goes. I just purchased a new circuit board from LMC and should be here soon. I needed it anyway the original one was very weathered. SO my question is on the back of the temp gauge is there a wire that is suppose to be installed? or does it get the power from the circuit board? Thank you for any help. If it does get power from a wire I am assuming its just the green one that is already hooked up to the sensor. Thank you.

Now wires. Only the tack has it's own wiring harness.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
