I have installed the sender units and the aux. remote temp and oil press. Gauges in a 1993 case 24 volt and am wondering how to attach the red power supply. Do I buy a power reducer 24volt to 12volt to make the connection?Can anyone suggest the fix?

You will need a 24-12v converter. If you only hook up to one battery, it will kill that battery.

Absolutely correct. Any time you want 12 volts from a 24 volt system use a convertor. When you hook to only one battery of 2 connected in series to aquire 12 volts your batteries do not charge evenly and everything suffers including battery life in a big way. Normally will lead to one freezing in cold weather also.
