You need to write to a fortune-teller, only he can tell what is it that you need wired, a semi-truck or a harvester, or something else? )

Can you be more specific, which gauges you’d like to light up in ACC?

It looks like you have the following gauges:
Speedo
Tach
Volt
Oil Pressure
Fuel
Air Temp.

Looking at the schematics it looks like in ACC. only the Speedo will light up, all the others will be OFF – is that true?

What you need to do is move all the backlighting bulbs of the gauges from the ignition Circuit to the ACC. Circuit.
It is easier said than done, you’ll need someone with some knowledge and skills to do that without messing up all your wiring.
For someone who knows what he is doing it will take an hour to do it, including taking fairing off/on.
