I have the guage in the car and the temp side is wired.
It's the pressure and idjit light that I need help with.

New wires are run from the senders to the guage.
What wire goes where?
I have four wires. One off the idiot sender and three off the pressure sender.

Help me help myself. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

need more data...

what year is your combo gauge? ideally, what's the part number? i have those same instruments but a different combo gauge (no oil idiot light in 1971...)

what is the part number of the sender? (hint: if it's not the sender from the Porsche that donated the gauge, it's probably not going to work right...)

(not that it matters much, because that whole thing is likely to crack from the vibration and fall off, at which time the oil pressure is zero and the temp is not important...)

if i had to guess, it's be that the sender is some kind of combination gauge driver (variable resistance) and pressure switch (for the light).
