Oil Pressure guage not working

[Timja]

My oil pressure guage appears to have stopped working. Any ideas on what needs to be done to fix it or anything to check? Where is the sensor located?

Thanks

You could always buy one from classifieds

Check the connections on the oil sender first. You'll need a trolley jack and at least one axel stand for this. The sender can be found behind the oil filter and in front of the sump. The oil sender is fairly straight forward to replace and can be purchased either via the classifieds or Ebay. The classifieds sender is a direct replacement for the TVR one and doesn't require any earthing.

The Ebay sender requires an earth connection, which is simple enough. Simply attach a couple of connectors to each end of a piece of wire and attach one end to the chassis earthing point on the vertical behind the drivers side front wheel and the other to the sender. Super simple. If you're struggling, I'll take a shot of mine tomorrow.

The below thread may help!

Thanks, sounds like the ebay one is more accurate from that link. Will have a look at the connections 1st and make sure it isn't just that.
