Resistance Test (RX7)

  1. Disconnect wiring harness connector from oil pressure gauge sending unit. Connect Red lead of Checker (49-0839-285) to wiring harness connector and Black lead to ground.
  2. Set checker to specified resistance values and ensure oil pressure gauge gives proper indication. See OIL PRESSURE GAUGE RESISTANCE  .
  3. If gauge does not function as described, check wiring harness. If harness is okay, remove instrument cluster and check gauge. If gauge is okay, replace sending unit.
NOTE: On RX7 models, oil pressure is slightly lower when engine is cold because eccentric shaft by-pass valve operates.
