Couple of questions....First last night when i was riding my oil pressure gauge needle, dropped and wont work anymore. Is that some kind of sensor>? its got plenty of oil. i didnt know where the sensor was, how much it would cost, but i need to fix it. Second question my ECS button doesnt work anymore, what could cause that not to work>? when im riding down the road, in the lower left hand corner, it will just blink on and off, sometimes tour, sometimes sport, sometimes both at the same time, and sometimes nothing at all? Is there a sensor for that too? where and how much? thanks

with regards to the oil pressure gauge...i had the same thing happen to me, but that was when I was going 130 and went through an intersection and hit a big bump. the oil pressure sensor on my engine busted right off. shop just drilled it out and put a new one in.

with regards to the tour/sport light, mine has also blinked in the same fashion as you. eventually it always goes back to normal. dunno exactly what causes it.

Re: 93 vr4

Well what happened to me and heard some others with same prob is that the connector on oil gauge sensor can disconnect really easy, check that out first, I put mine back on and it worked fine.

This thread describe it with pics.

For the ECS, first check here:

http://www.3sxperformance.com/faq/ecsmodule/index.asp


It shows the location of the computer in the trunk, kinda near the gas lid, but on the inside. Check to make sure it's plugged in.

Also, pull the caps off the top of the struts and check the wires.
