AEM Oil Pressure sensor gone bad?
AEM Oil Pressure sensor gone bad?
My oil and pressure gauge has been working great for about 5 years and a few weeks ago it started reading 0 - 150 back and forth and then it went to just reading dashes. I pulled over and checked the dip stick and it’s showing I’ve got oil. Is it the sensor bad? I emailed AEM and they said:
Anyone have any pictures of how this is done?
Locate the sensor and use a paperclip or pick to pull back the rubber stopper that the 3 wires are passing through on the connector to the sensor. This will expose the back of the pins that are connected to the sensor.
Test between black and red. You should see between 4.9-5 volts. Anything outside of that will tell you that there is an issue with the wiring or the gauge itself. If you have 5 volts, you can move on to test between black and green. For your 150 psi gauge, you should find 0.47-0.53volts, and the gauge should show approximately 0psi at this time.
