Hey guys, i have bene experiencing irratic and low oil pressure readings.

I got my self a AutoGauge smoke series electronic oil pressure gauge with sender from honsma and a sandwich plate from just jap.

Now i cant get the gauge to read, i suspect the gauge is faulty or my wiring is wrong.

The instructions with the gauge are crap and do not indicated what wires go where.

Basically i have a orange, red and black wire which are conneteced up to supply light to the gauge.

this leaves me with a Black , Red and Green wire which are for the sender.

On the two terminals on the sender one has the letter 'G' adn the other "WK:Ground'

I connected the black wire to WK:ground and the green wire the the terminal with 'g' and the red wire to a powersource.

Now the gauge does not read at all stays dead on 0psi , my stock gauge still reads.

Does any one have any ideas or a wiring diagram at all? i cant find any info about them

Cheers.

Well you don't have a faulty oil pump if your motor is still running :nyaanyaa:

I have just put in a bunch of autometer gear and they all came with wiring diagrams, surprised your's didn't. I didn't do an oil pressure though.

instructions can be downloaded from www.autometer.com under gauges/information

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
