While we are on the topic of the oil pressure sensor, I thought I would share a recent experience.

About two months ago the oil pressure gauge on my cluster pegged to the top while I was at the end of a long drive. The oil pressure warning light did not illuminate, so I thought it was a problem with the cluster, my wiring work or the pressure sensor. According to the 996 forum on Renntech, the pressure sensors are a known weakness. I replaced my sensor yesterday and that fixed the problem.

I've had my 996 cluster for over two years now and I still think this is a great mod. Whenever I see a picture of a Boxster with a 3-gauge cluster, it looks like something is missing. It is a little disappointing that the pressure sensor may fail occasionally, but I can live with that.

Good luck to anyone installing a cluster. While you are installing the pressure sensor, take good notes. You may be redoing the work in a couple of years.
