Factory boost gauge not working?

[RogueSteel]

I'm pretty sure its the vacuum line inside the engine bay on the driver side right above the starter but...where does it GO?

There are alot of line above the start, a pic of specifically where it is would help.

Or use the links below to figuere it out yourself...

Sorry to thread jack, but is the stock boost gauge all electric, cause I have this old autometer phantom that is vacuum only, and I wanted to know if it would be worth mounting up in the dash.

^The stock gauge is useless. Your best bet is to use anything else other than it. Do yourself a favor and get a mechanical boost/vacuum

yea mine stopped working too, but i think it could be the dash, cause not even the back lights are working for it, also isnt there a sensor somewhere in the engine?

sorry just not trying to high jack

Yeah I know on mine when it stopped working for a while there was a little t section near the brake booster/ cruise control. It kept popping off there for some reason. Try checking that out. I just got new vacuum hose and it held

I have an autometer gauge, I was just wondering If it was a simple fix to mount it in the dash?

Not my pic
There is a boost sensor for the dash. Next to the left (driver in US) side TEMS cover, it shares vacuum with the cruse controll.

yea the black box right? thats a map sensor, i used to play with them on my corollas when doing turbos, mine is connected but i think its my dash, i put the key in and stays at -4, doesnt move, the back light dont turn on, could be the dash

yeah that's it! its a map sensor, the vac hose on mine went to the outlet on the back of the intake manifold, and the wiring runs through one of the body looms.

yea, ight so then for me it has to be my cluster, i just wonder why it went out, even tho the factory boost gauge sucks, but mine just went out
