What do you mean a "dummy reading"?

He means that they are not actual readings sensor/gauge readings, they are made up numbers by the truck's ECM based on many things going on in and around the engine. Chris

Hmmm. Not sure I buy this (no offense). Can you provide any proof of this?

On our 2001.5 Ram it had a real oil pressure gauge. If the sensor went bad the replacement was a switch that pasted 40 on the gauge. Ram has been doing things like the for quite a few years. We are on our third RAM/Cummings and am active on the Turbo Diesel Register site. What I posted is common knowledge there and on other sites.

When Ron said just drive it, that is where we are at, these new trucks will not allow themselves to be hurt. Go forth an enjoy!
