Just acquired an 803A and the panel gauges are not wired for the 194/464 style lamps that are in each gauge? Are the gauges 12 or 24 volt and where is the best place to find power for the bulbs?

The generators DC electrical system is 24 volts.
You can get switched 24 panel light power from DS1, DS2, or DS3 terminal 1.
S2 is the panel lamp power switch.

I typically just make a little daisy chain with 1/4" Faston connectors for the gage lights and a snap spade connector on the end, jump from each gage bulb with the Faston's and connect the spade to one of the panel light sockets.
Make sure to secure the wires to the wire harness, otherwise they can get pinched or snagged on the top of the enclosure when you shut the gage panel.
