R34 Gtt Boost Gauge Working Intermittently

[nj1985]

Hi guys,

My R34 Gauge appears to be working intermittently. The needle will hit full boost then drop to the bottom and stay there then intermittently works.

I have checked the boost/turbo pressure sensor and the hoses seem to be connected fine from the manifold. I am assuming then its an issue with the gauge itself or something electrical in the sensor?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Continuity testing of the wiring followed by swaptronics I reckon.

There is a thread on this in DIY... Mates S15 does the same thing, things it's dry solder or something simple like that... If you find the thread it should

Help fix the problem....

Dry solder joints in the MAP sensor. They all seem to do it after a while. It's an easy fix.

Here's a thread I did for the Stagea guys, Its the same sensor as I realised later. There are a few other threads on it too if you search around.
