tareeterror Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hi,anyone able to help tell me how to test my tilt & trim gauge? sender is working fine, but gauge goes up to full up as soon as key on, and only goes down just below the up line with key off, it is on a 1987 140hp johnson gauge. would like to make sure it is gauge or just the diode between the sender terminal and the positive terminal on gauge before buying new gauge. thanks.

bisso Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 No idea Sorry!!!! could be numerous things causing it. perhaps a workshop manual or engine manual might shed some light. you might like to see if there is a dedicated forum for your specific brand of engine somewhere on the world wide web which someone else has encounteed and resolved the same issue oyu are experiencing. Sorry but cant offer much else on this one... Godd luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tareeterror Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 Have now sorted it out, local boat shop had a second hand gauge to try which worked, so looks like gauge was at fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
