EMS POWERED Digital Oil Pressure Gauge

KU_MechE · 10-21-2009, 04:18 PM

Bak,
I have a small problem with the digital oil pressure gauge kit that replaces the stock boost gauge. I have everything hooked up correctly, but I get no pressure reading. I have power to the gauge, ground to the gauge, signal wire to the switch then to the ground, and wires hooked up for the dimmer. I have full controls of the gauge through the switch, and the gauge dims when I turn on the headlights. The gauge is 100% wired correctly and I have no questions about that.

Unfortunately, the Oil Pressure Sending unit isn't sending any reading back to the gauge. I have to assume the sending unit is malfunctioning and I'd like to request a replacement. The gauge just reads "0" PSI throughout the day and I have checked and re-checked all my connections. Please let me know if you can send an Oil Pressure Sending unit my way. I'f that doesn't solve the problem, i'll return it to you.
Thanks,
KU_MechE

My ems digital oil pressure gauge constantly reads "low". Maybe they just aren't callibrated right?

Yea, my gauge doesn't show any pressure ever. It lights up, goes through a startup countdown, dims, and is controllable, but throughout the RPM band it always shows zero.

Bak, any word on this yet? I have not received a reply, PM, or email.

KU_MechE, I didn't even see this thread till today. Call or email me. Sounds like you just don't have it wired right.

Mike, yours is more than likely reading correctly, but may not have its max/min values set correctly. Also sending you an email here shortly about your turbo.

Turns out it was just my mistake. I was looking at my oil temperature gauge, which is always reading "low". Oil pressure seems to be accurate
