My oil pressure guage went kaput, no real reason except that it is all rednecked together probably. I'm going to be replacing it with an autometer guage, but I would like to get this one going until the order shows up.
I've spent some time trouble shooting it this morning, and I think the sending unit itself is bad. Doesn't surprise me since it is "new".
When playing around with the test light (while the engine is on), I noticed there is power going to the sender on one of two wires going into the top of it. But no power coming out of the sender (the purple wire that fits on the nipple). I'm assuming there should be power coming out of the sender nipple while the engine is running???
Since there is power into it, but not out of it, I'm assuming the unit itself is bad. But then again, I don't really know how it works anyway.
Thanks!!!
