got a slight intermittent fault on my oil gauge on my williams 2, only had it a day its great :D.

Anywhoo just wondering if any1 knows what it could be sometimes it reads empty other times it reads full , thinking it maybe a dodgy wire but i wouldnt even know where to look to change it pics would be great lol

cheers in advance

IF IT IS TH GAUGE ON THE FAR LEFT IE LAST GAUGE? on left YES ?

if so it only works when you put igntion on it goes up for a 30s or a minate then goes to 0 just to check level off oil at cold (ie like dipping your oil level in engine bay)

it will not work when driving or car running ..

also d not take this level gauge as accurate IT IS NOT

I AGREE but it is nice being there .. the sports ie 172 182 have that little lcd thingy crapy in dash as same .. and no impact .. i like the gauges .. call me old fashened .. but i like the movement .. i fell like apollo 13
