Evening,

My oil pressure gauge has been playing up for a while... This evening I decided to run a new wire incase there was corrosion and it's not working at all :( Earthed the dials and they're fine and the warning light is work.

Anyone got one? Pref that is going up at to Cov at the weekend.

Thanks,

Chris

Sorry for the slightly off topic thread hijack,

but in that first pic, where does the green and blue wire got to if the other goes to the guage?

basically how do I wire in the sender into my standard nova loom!? I have no idea when it comes to this sort of thing!!

Sorry again for the hijack

Ok...

If you have a a gauge and a warning light, you'll need the above 2 pin sender.
The plug from the dials will have the 2 wires. If you're retro-fitting the dials you might not have the gauge wire, which you will need to run another wire from the sender.

Blue with green trace (plastic connector) - Oil warning lamp
Blue with yellow trace (screw pin) - Oil pressure gauge
