Just installed a new nismo guage cluster in my series 4 1996 TT but the

boost guage doesn't seem to work.

 

The previous cluster i removed didn't have a boost guage so could there

be something missing or disabled that needs to be fixed before it works ?

you'll probably find that you will need a boost sender to go with the boost gauge.

 

was the cluster that you took out factory fit?

Yeh,

 

The previous cluster was factory fitted, just checked the engine bay and the cant

see any pipes going to where the sender should be so it likely missing !

 

Anybody got a pic of the loom or where the sender is actually seated ?

 

Next question would be who's got a sender that they could sell me ?

 

Cheers

the sender is normally sitting just to the left of the brake servo with a vac pipe going to it, leading from the balance bar and has a 3 wired plug, much like a coil pack or O2 sensor plug connected to it. you maybe lucky and find said plug just sitting there ready to be connected to it ;)

The s4 didnt have a boost guage so i very much doubt it will have all the wireing for it etc??

i should have one, show me a pic of what it looks like and where its located

Not sure where it actually is, just know its in near the drivers side !

 

think i just got one from vodkashots, but will need to see if theres a loom for it first.

 

Cheers

 

think you can just see it up near the blue pipe work i have on my red zed lol

Heres a pic of the new nismo cluster i bought from the states !

 

Set me back £160, but was worth it cos the series 4 clocks differ and

I couldn't get a hold of any in the UK that would work !

 

Only two faults that i could detect with it so far, one is the boost guage

dont work and the second is the seatbelt light stays on all the time but

i think i'll just pull the bulb on that one !

doesn't look like a cruise one, though i could be wrong, thought cruise was flat, and didn't have a socket like a O2 sensor

your guess is as good as anyones when there aint no pic ;)
