ToroToro Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 i've had about enough of this..... what you all need to do rather then destroying a good cluster is just go buy the SENDER for the cars 88-93 the oil pressure gauge works in my 88 and i have a 94 cluster in the car I think you are mistaken. A '94 cluster will have the said resistor in the cluster, and will always read 5/8s full. I bet that's what yours does, right? It doesn't matter what kind of sender/switch you have got in there, as your cluster is completely incapable of reading properly anyways. I think you missed the purpose of these past four pages.

No mine actually moves from 1/2 way at start up to 1/8-1/4 when it gets warmed up so i don't know what the problem is with your's but mine works it just doesn't like the 2.8's oil pressure getting that low :?

ToroToro Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 You sure it's a '94 then? Pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 turby said it came out of a 94 cutlass supreme it doesn't have the numbers on the oil pressure.... so i figure it must be a 94 cause thats what i was told it came out of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToroToro Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Does it have the little "shadows" in the black part of the cluster for the airbag and security lights? If it doesn't, it's no '94 cluster. Could be a '92, since Never Satisfied's '92 doesn't have numbers either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutlsp Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 it does have the air bag and security lights i want to know which pin operates the security light so i can make it light up with the alarm system..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cutlsp Posted March 9, 2006 Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 Cool now i don't have to do anything as far as the alarm is concerned to make it obvious the car has an alarm. Question is do I want a blinking led or a solid burning one? I know the blinking one will last longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy K Posted March 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2006 After adding the UB3 into my 94' of course my oil pressure is also pegged at full. I bought a oil pressure sender from a 91 3.4 DOHC cutlass (GM part) and will install it tomorrow. We shall see the outcome! Jason that would be the proper fix remember... the gauge sender is about twice as long as the dolt light sender! i've had about enough of this..... what you all need to do rather then destroying a good cluster is just go buy the SENDER for the cars 88-93 the oil pressure gauge works in my 88 and i have a 94 cluster in the car I think you are mistaken. A '94 cluster will have the said resistor in the cluster, and will always read 5/8s full. I bet that's what yours does, right?

No mine actually moves from 1/2 way at start up to 1/8-1/4 when it gets warmed up so i don't know what the problem is with your's but mine works it just doesn't like the 2.8's oil pressure getting that low :? both of you are correct... specifically... the info I NEED... is to know whether the gauge type sender will interfere with the functioning of the check guages light, in the cluster with a fake guage. and when i say fake gauge it is actually a real gauge that works... but on a compressed scale... so a real sender will make it work... but not read true. this is the issue that you are experiencing cutlsp and not really an indication of low oil pressure... as a matter of fact.... when the gauge reads about 1/8 does it turn the check light on??? UPDATE!!!!! I FORGOT.... to mention... the difference in not in the resistor I had mentioned before... it has to do with how/the number of windings for the two parts of the coil windings.... But I haven't got a measurement of the windings resistance yet.... but I did acquire a gauge sender. btw, I located the 92 cs parts two weeks ago in columbus with help from inanimatedecay and birdman... (thanks for the help!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
