Default key switch and vote meter

My cart has a vote meter that shows battery votes all the time.

Wanting to hook it to the key switch so it will only show votes whin key is on.

Can someone tell me how to do this?
Thanks in advance

Your Ezgo cart has positive votes at the key switch. It best if you have a handheld vote meter so you can tell positive votes from negative votes. If you have a 2 wire meter run the negative side to the battery pack main (-) and the (+) side of the meter to the side of the key switch that only has votes when the key is in the on position. The 2 wire LED digital type meters are the best... they get my volt.

Thanks for the replys.
Jake is there any way you could drow me out a diagram?

I do have a handheld meter and and it is a 2 wire meter.

But I'd feel a little safer if I had a diagram I can look at.

It's real easy, take the negative lead on the meter to the main negative of the pack. Then take the positive wire to the 'cold side' of the keyswitch, which only has voltage when the key is in the on position.

here is the basic diagram - If you want more go to my website and look at the meter page where we sell 2 wire LED meters.
