Because mine is being dumb. Key on engine off and it reads about halfway between 0 and -20. You think the gauge is off or the sensor is off? TIA

Its not, mine broke about 2 weeks after I had it, plus there are no actual numbers, you dont get and actual boost reading, just pretty much when ur turbo is at full boost and isnt.

It does seem more like an on and off switch. I replaced it with an aftermarket gauge which was much more accurate.
