3110D Sensor lights

[goatpharmerx]

My idiot lights *charge, oil, and temp* do not seem to be working is there a way to test them to see it is the bulb, sensor, or wiring is the culprit. On my old 240 I just bypassed and installed some generic guages from the auto parts store, but I would like to make them work on the 3110.

thanks

Sounds like a fuse. That, 12 volts dc, and ground, is all they have in common.

You were almost right I tracked it down to the fuse box. The fuse was good but the connection was a little rusty. I cleaned it up and now the oil and charge lights are working with the ignition on. The temp light still does not come on at startup. I had read some earlier post and tried testing it by grounding the wire out but nothing happened. The bulb is good b/c I swapped it over to one of the other working sockets. Any Suggestions?????

Be sure you have a goood ground connection, both between the battery and the frame and the dash............other than that, could be bad contacts in the bulbholder, or a break inthe wire to the sender.............both fairly easy to check.
