help with Hour meter inop

[SPIKER]

I HAD a NEW tach but I belive it was in the trunk of my tempo when I tried to teach my little teen age girl to drive... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif both are a hole lot smaller now. as fire tends to do that to things that contain plastic and wire surrounded by metal /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif http://www.bright.net/~ispike/carfire

anyhow things happen. I'll look AGAIN but I'm almost 100% sure it is gone gone gone. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Yes I figured as much, The schematic did not show a oil pressure grounding but that doesnt mean much. I have not heard back from the guy. I asked him to see if it has one or 2 senders at the oil fitting, and how many wires the sender has. the tractor is a 2003-2003 build.

There's only one sender, two wires: #26 to the hour meter and #27 to the oil pressure gauge. You never answered whether or not the hour meter was a round gauge all by itself. But since you've only just now identified it as a 2003, it's likely integrated into the cluster gauge configuration. In that case, wire #26 is probably tucked up and not used. The hour meter configuration would then be as described by BlueChip.

OK. Sorry to have wasted your time. Wire #26 will likely be tucked up into the loom - unused. The hour meter apparently shares a common ground with the cluster.
