OK I got no help in the PCM section so I'm posting here. I have an OBD1 cluster and a 2 pin oil pressure switch for what I believe to be 1998 F-body. Which wire is which? I presume I'll have one that is unused. I just need the gauge to operate. Apparently I should have bought the single wire version but I've got this one.

What's it look like..the one with the White Connector?

dhdenney

iTrader: (53)

Yes that is correct.

the_merv

Mine has the one closest to the Center pinned as the Signal..

dhdenney

iTrader: (53)

I'm not exactly sure what that means... And the other wire goes where?

the_merv

iTrader: (88)

Take the Wire that is in the Center of the Connector and run that straight to the Gauges..see what it does.

Best I can tell the pins are oriented the same but I'll take another look.

Doesn't the 2 pin just operate an idiot light? You need the 3 pin to operate the gauge correct?

One wire runs the gauge, its the center pin (tan or brown depending on the year)

Ill take a pic of the connector tonite

Like I said I think the pins are oriented the same. The pigtail doesn't have different colored lead wires--they're both white.

Post a pic up..

dhdenney

iTrader: (53)

Best I can do right now.

the_merv

iTrader: (88)

Wow..lol..now I know why you were sayin they both are in the center..


Try the upper one and run it directly to the Gauges..

Yeah I'm not completely retarded, haha. OK I see the single pin has it above the key in the plug so I'll try that one. That was a stock photo I had grabbed off Autozone's website. Do I see an upside down "G" there on my bottom pin? I'd like to know what that pin does on the 98 cars. I'm not sure how close this car is to running but I should be able to get the electrical system nearly done this weekend. However I won't be satisfied til the car runs and I can see what the gauges are telling me.

On the 98 cars, the second pin is the ground wire for the sensor. For 99 and up they just grounded the sensor internally to the case and got rid of the ground wire.

You may have to take that Sensor back and get a 1999-up type..then run the single wire. I'm doing it that way without issue.

Those things are expensive..I have one on the Engine and a spare in my Glove Box so I don't misplace it..lol

dhdenney

iTrader: (53)

Yeah they are expensive and I couldn't take it back so that's why I am wanting to make it work. But it seems that very well may have been a "G" I see on the switch. So I will ground that one and run the other one to the gauge. Hopefully it works.

the_merv

iTrader: (88)

It should..I don't see that being one of them resistance type circuits seeing as how the 1998 is still analog..
