hey this is the second spot i placed this post to try to get some more exposure...
my autometer oil pressure gauge stopped working on my lude. I didnt install it so im not familiar with it. What should i look at to see why it isnt working. It just reads 0 now. I know there is oil pressure too, so dont anyone be funny about that.
any help is appreciated.

i dont know how the gauge is connected it, so im not familiar with it, niether am i familiar with how to correctly connect a oil press gauge. but from what small knowledge i have, i think the signal for the oil pressure is connected next to the sensor by the oil filter. check to see if the wiring came loose from there. check out all the wiring on the gauge too to see if any wire is not connected

I checked the wiring, the wiring on the actual gauge iteself is fine, and it is wired to something that looks like a small filter on the oil ascending unit. The wire had a small burn mark on it where it looked like it had touched the manifold, but it was barly burnt through the plastic, it touched the actual metal part of the wire a tiny bit. I cut that part off and spliced the wires back together but it still does not work. Do you guys think its the gauge or the ascending unit or somthing else??
