I believe the Red wire is it's power input for the display and the orange is the accessory light. Some gauges will dim or have a different color when your accessory/parking lights are turned on.
Check the footwell fuse panel for the proper places. Most of them will be "always on" while there are some fuses that only are on when the parking lights are on. I wish i could be of more help but I dont know exactly what fuses are down there at the moment

Red connects to the ignition and powers up the gauges when the car is started. The orange wire connects to the headlights so that when the headlights are turned on the back lighting for the gauges also comes on. If you were to connect both the orange and red wire to an ignition source the backlights of the gauges would constantly be on and burn out the bulbs quicker.
