Gauge Resistors
« on: October 10, 2024, 01:31:07 PM »
Is there any information or a chart that shows the resistor values for the different gauges and years they belong to?

The two that I have checked for the Y88 is:

Fuel gauge resistor has a ohm reading of 88....Blue

Volts gauge has a resistor ohm reading of 126.....Orange

I also have some gauges from a 1975 Trans Am that have an ohm reading of 86 and 88 for both volts and fuel.

I’m pretty sure the service manuals list them

A Camaro looks like it could kick your ass.
A Trans Am looks like it's coming over to do it
