Hi RTOC,
Run into some problems with my R5 GTT i was hoping you could help me with. My instrument cluster isn’t working quite as supposed and I’m a bit stuck regarding reading of the diagrams.
Problem with oil level/pressure gauge:
- With ignition ON:
Oil light lights op but oil level gauge stays dead and doesn’t show any level.
- With engine running:
Oil pressure gauge stays dead – no movement at all.
As I understand the system it should show the oil level when ignition ON and switch to oil pressure once started.
Looking at the wire loom in engine bay there is 2 wires going to the pressure sensor (Orange and Brown)
Also 2 wires going to oil level sensor in tub, which also are Orange and Brown.
The wires have been traced back to instrument through a big connection point behind left head light (which were pretty corroded)
Have tried to “short circuit” the 2 wires going to the oil level sensor in the pan as I thought that would trigger instrument needle to show “full” but still no movement.
Removing the 2 wires from the pressure sensor switches off the oil control light.
Attached are 2 diagrams – 1 for Oil pressure gauge (dual purpose) and 1 for screen wash.
Can anyone explain what the symbols are fore? (marked with pen)
Hope you can help me
Regards Dennis.
