Chalk me up for another failed RP gauge

It lasted a month, and now i have a dead screen. Checked all connections, there is power, but no green lights. I was hoping it would last abit longer than that. I guess I'll be calling DieselManor again and send something else to them.

There's really only one that i know of, and thats the Quad. I thought DiPricol might make an analog gauge, but haven't looked it up.

Chris, where you been? Ain't seen you around much. I really though of starting the club, but RP gauge failure isn't worthy of it...yet.

Di Pricol makes an analog display gauge.

Isspro just came out with their new Performax line, which also has a rail gauge. It's expensive, though, since you have to buy the "brain" to drive the gauges. Pretty slick setup though, I've been told you can daisy-chain however many gauges you want....

Wow, I'm having great luck w/ my Quad RP gauge/X2(almost 1yr old), too bad I had terrible luck with RP sensors because of it! Sorry to hear about yours, let us know what you go with.

Didn't Quad abandon the low-pressure fuel senders altogether? I was about to pull the trigger on a Commander when that happened. I don't have much use for rail pressure without low-pressure fuel readings. For now I'm just running a Westach boost/egt combo...

Yeah, i wish Isspro would just make a normal RP gauge, sucks having all of the other gauges in good condition.

traced everything down on the wires, I loomed everything so nothing would corrode or rub against anything, and all checked out good. My power source is spot on, grounded good, but still dead. Anyone have the Dipricol RP?

I have a diprocal and it's worked flawlessly for the last year and change. Everyone bought the quad gauge to save and all it is is a pain in the arss. Get a Diprocal!!!!
