Fuel and Oil Pressures Not Reading on SV1000

[Flyguytki]

I have dual Skyviews and am getting ready for final assembly however both my Oil and Fuel Pressure gauges are showing red X's. I am at a loss on where to go from here, I have checked all the internal settings checked the wiring and everything seems correct, any Shot in the dark ideas on what it might be?

Thanks

When did you buy your SkyView and what software version is it running?

Skyview was purchased in September, and the Software is the most up to date since I just installed the ADSB As well.

I called dynon today and we thought we might have figured it out in which sensor was chosen on the input mapping page. Well they were set to what I was told to make them so that was not the problem, a little more info:

I have the old style Kavilco sensors that only have one wire,
Both Fuel and Oil Pressure are showing an X
Software is up to date.


Thanks again

The old style sensors are NOT the Kavlico ones, so that might be the confusion. The single wire sensors are the ones that start out "0-XXX PSI..." on the pin mapping page, and the Dynon part numbers are also there as well.

You may have gone over this with Dynon but what type of plane & are the sensors grounded (ideally it's better to connect sensor ground to one of the ground wires at the back of the SV)?

For troubleshooting purposes I'd connect a temporary ground wire to the sensors & recheck.
