My RPM gauge doesn't work. I traced out checked the wiring and everything looks alright. I removed the sensor and it looks alright. Anyway to test the sensor? I was thinking of using a drill and spin a piece of metal in front of it. Is there a way to check the gauge itself? How to you adjust the sensor? I'm afraid to screw it in too far and shear the end off.
The internal resistor in the oil pressure sensor seems to be burnt open because even with the engine off my gauge is pinned to the max. I'm reading open circuit to ground and when I short the terminal to ground the gauge reads zero so the wiring is good. The other terminal of the oil pressure sensor that illuminates the light works but not the gauge. What is the resistance range. I see many sending units on ebay but need to know what the range is to make sure it will work with my gauge.
