Just replaced my oil and fuel pressure Kavlico sensors with the new P/N 103757 pressure senders per the service bulletin. My D180 oil pressure indications are good, HOWEVER, fuel pressure now shows about 7 psi and 9 psi when the electric boost pump is on. The older Kavlico sensor that I replaced (P4055-50G) used to show 12 and 23 psi respectively. My firmware version is 5.6.1 which is the latest. If I select "SENSOR TYPE:5" as per the instructions I get 0.5 to 2 psi indications. SENSOR TYPE:7 gives the higher indications. Yes, the resistor was installed in series on the green wire. Any help correcting this situation would be greatly appreciated.

So on the D180, you'll need the 50 PSI new sensor for the replacement, not the 150 PSI, which is only usable for oil pressure (this is different from SkyView, which can use the 150 PSI for fuel pressure as well). We'll have 50 PSI sensors available shortly.
