To check for a sending unit malfunction:

  • Use Compulink™ to verify the readings of the suspect gauge.
  • If readings from the engine sensors are suspected, use a master gauge of known accuracy to verify.
  • Connect the line from the master gauge to the main oil rifle on the fuel pump side of the engine.
  • Replace the sending unit or sensor if it is defective.
