HOW TO: Swap PP gauges into standard model

[Grey16gt]

Yes if you have the premium package the base doesn't have the same oil sending unit you would ha e to change look it up on the first posting

I do have the premium and I have seen the video of the guy's oil pressure gage ccoming alive after his tuner sent him a revised tune and no oil low pressure light on his dash. So what i was wondering was if anyone new what his tuner added to his tune to bring the oil pressure gage alive

Everything works do you have a gt premium

 

[Grey16gt]

Yes I have a premium but oil pressure gage is dead

 

[T1000]

Check if all is properly spliced before you assemble together.Take your time. Unless gauge defective used or new. Easy way find friend who has local and test with theirs

the cable that carry signal for oil pressure to the gauges is the same tha carry signal fot the vac\boost so if this works, cable splicing is good.
Oil gauge is not working on all cars, except for tuned ones.

15onBOOST, Since your gauges are working without a tune, I am curious if your ecoboost a base or premium?

I have a Gt Roush charged no Ecoboost

After seeing you installing aftermarket gauges in the same space as the OEM gauges, I am now interested in doing that.

Did you ever get the 2nd gauge installed and working, I believe you stated it was on its way.

So what I wanted to find out is, how do the new gauges wire up? Do we have to follow the original write up on this thread to wire up the aftermarket gauges from speed hut?

Also, which gauges did you order again? Oil Pressure I think was one of them?

Thanks

Hey guys so I have a GT350 dash panel and the Ecoboost PP gauges with the wiring harness up for grabs for $300 if anyone wants it.
If anyone is interested PM me for pics and I'll get them to you asap

Member t1000 figured this out and his oil pressure gauge is now working fine he sent me the information today I'm going to go through it and post it his friend works at Ford and is some sort of tech for them so this stuff maybe over my head I made need you guys to help me make sense of it all. But the long and short of it is everything that's posted at the beginning of this thread is exactly what needs to be done but the reason for the low oil pressure light that some guys are getting and the gauge being dead is there are two pins that are switched between the non-performance and the performance pack and when these pins are switched to the proper location from the non-performance to like the performance pack is the gauge comes alive and works fine after the pins are switched is where you need a tuner to switch them in your tune T1000 explains that in the note he sent me which I will post also
