Hi Guys,
Just wondering what everyones used in the past on the VR/VS for earth points for an electronic oil pressure gauge.
I've just hooked one up on the statesman using the 12v positive and earth from the cigarette lighter for the gauge and earthed directly to the block on my electronic sender.
Pressure readings seem accurate at idle but as soon as the brake lights come on or I turn the headlights on my readings dip by about 10psi.
I've re-earthed the sensor on a few different spots on the block and the body which isn't making a difference so I can only assume it's where i've earthed the gauge itself in the cabin.
Can anyone recommend any good spots inside to try?
Cheers
