Pyro Installed. No workie. Pic inculled. Works now

I put my quad commander on my truck today and drilled and taped the manifold and made sure all the wires were hooked together and it wont read at all!!

Did i drill in a dead spot. It should at least read somthing and mine is staying at 32 degrees

I believe there is a devider (for a lack of a better word) around that area. When you drilled through, did you find an empty chamber? If not, you might have hit the devider. I drilled mine on the round elbow on the # 5 & 6 cylender bank. You might want to uncrew the thermocouple and look to see if there is a void. Also, double check your connections and polarity.

a lot of the gauges need power to operate, no juice, no readings. did you hook up the power to the gauge?

I thought so also...........most say to drill on one side or the other, but not in the center.

I just drilled mine on the rear of this divider and it reads perfectly.

Even if you did hit the devider,,,I would think surely it would read more than 32*.

You either have a bad gauge, amp box, or probe. Call where ever you bought it and ask them. Did you try tapping the gauge to see if it move's.

Glad you got it fixed.

If you did not drill exactly in the middle you should ok.
