I got to working on my 7 this yesterday replacing the master clutch and slave cylinder. I took it to a friends shop and everything went well.



But earlier today i noticed that my oil indicator in the dash was not showing ANY oil pressure. At first it scared the **** out of my pants. But pulling into my garage and doing some investigation I found that there was plenty of pressure and that nothign was wrong.



So my question is how would I fix the indicator. We could have unnententionally disconnected a wire around the clutch and made it disfuncntion. Where and how would i get this fixed.



Thanks.

you knocked the wire off, it should be floating around by the oil pressure sender, its the round gold thing under the oil filter

Scared the crap out of me when that happened to me. Just one little wire.

Mine is hooked up, but the oil pressure gauge jumps to the very max as soon as you turn the key to ON, so I know something's wrong. Improper grounding? Faulty Oil-Sending Unit? What?

Bad sender unit.

my gauge shot up like that too, only it took the spring inside it with it when it died...kinda dangled like dirk diggler if ya know what i mean. Had to replace the entire cluster, but hey, at least now i only have 98,000 miles https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

ok thanks for the replies.



But I can see a wire but can't figure if its in all the was. Is it a wire next to the oil filter?

yes

LoL!! I outta get a new gauge cluster too. Back in '94 my CarFax reports my car only have 94k miles on it...gauge reads 174k now! >_<



LoL..











Oh yeah, I have an oil-sending unit that came with my S5 core, right now the S4 oil-sending unit is hooked up, is it possible to switch them and it'll read correctly?

not sure but dont think so...best to go with what was made for your car anyway
