Rail Pressure Guage question........

[Ducman82]

ok so i wired up my RP guage and as i always fear, when i turned on the truck the needle did not move... stuck on 5,000 PSI. the guage does not re calibrate or start from the bottom like all my other guages, so i tore everything that i spent hours lastnight doing apart to see what is up, i cant find anything wrong????? lookis like its got good power, and Welcome to Danin Inc link will not work past the main page... ... ... so if you had issues with yours, please le me know, i could use some help here... . and it looks like the guage gets its ground from the green and black that go to the sensor splice is that correct??

any one have a good idea how to test it???? anything ?

First things first, check connections, maybe try another ground just temporary? Does the needle go back to 0 once power is disconnected?

 

[Ducman82]

the needle does not. going to try its own ground and power when i get home

so it looks like the ground does to the sender. two wires a green and a black go to it. the black is the "ground" from the rail sender. any other ideas? or does anyone have Dipricol number. i cant seem to find it

1-800-398-6590 I found that number. Maybe that might help you out. It sounds like the gauge might be defective if it does not return to 0 with no power or ground
