I have absolutely no idea how long it hasnt worked for but my boost gauge isnt reading anything at all. I automatically checked everything and noticed I never put a bung in the pipe that goes from the throttle body to a check valve then joins to a metal hardline that runs along with the fuel rail so I plugged that still nothing at all it just sits at 0 the car dont feel underpowered in anyway so is it likely its just the gauge has packed up even if a pipe popped off there would still be some form of vacum wouldnt there ?
-
if the gauge was broke then it would still move.
It only reads 0 if it is completely disconnected.
Check all the lines again or try moving where the gauge is connected

Its a digi one bud and ive tried all that its definitely connected !

Does the vacuum hose connect to the guage or is it a seperate sender unit.also when the engine is running remove the vacuum hose and put ur hand to it. If you feel the vacuum then ur gauge is broke or just try the gauge in someone else car. You can also try put the the other end of the vacuum hose in ur mouth and suck like mad if it doesnt move then its broke
-
Its a seperate thing that clips to the back of the gauge. I cant feel any vacuum on the hose I never have been able to

Sure youv got it plumbed in correctly? Also if you have one of those tee peices with a little valve on it to stop fluctuations is it the right way around?
Where's is plumbed into?
