Posted July 8, 201014 yr comment_324701 Hey whats up guys i just bought my car this past Friday its a 76 280z. When I drove it back home I notice that my oil/temp gauge was working. The oil one will move but eventually it goes back and wont move a inch I took the time to take my dash off and made sure the cables were on right but no luck. ? Idk if their might be a fuse I should check or just replace it? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/36408-problem-with-my-gauges/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
July 8, 201014 yr comment_324702 Most likely the oil pressure sender. See if it is leaking oil. Try cleaning the connection while you are there. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/36408-problem-with-my-gauges/#findComment-324702 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different font, different plug. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/36408-problem-with-my-gauges/#findComment-324746 Share on other sites More sharing options...

July 10, 201014 yr Author comment_324882 Hey whats up guys so I still cant get the water temp to work I am guessing I am going to need a new gauge. But wile I was checking the cables to see if they were on right i came across the floor temp cable that was disconnected I plugged it in and now it stays on n wont turn off? I read up on it on the owners manual and it says it turns on when heat levels are abnormal and engine isn't functioning right?
