Del Gue Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 My oil pressure gauge has not worked for several months (83' GL wagon). I installed a new sending unit this past weekend (from AutoZone), but nothing happened. The new unit didn't much look like the old blue one that was on the pump. I checked fuses and they are good. Any suggestions? Thanks for the help. I don't like being without me gauge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 I would check to see if you are getting any voltage to the sensor using a meter. You may also be able to ground the lead to see if that does anything on the meter. The problem may be the wiring to the sensor or the gauge itself.

SakoTGrimes Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Get a new one from eBay. I got a 0-100psi one for like $17 shipped. I'll get around to putting it in one of these years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 my guess is they sold you an oil pressure switch not an oil pressure sender unit sender unit should have been about 30 bucks switch less than ten GWs by chance does the gage rise when the engine is not running but the ignition is in the run position? if so then the above is the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
