92 nissan pickup guage malfunction Sign In

I have 92 Nissan d21 with a 2.4L four cylinder. Its a base model. My temp and fuel guage have been working sporadically but usually once a month if that. They go in and out at the same time.

Im curious if it could be the voltage regulator. Or if my truck even has one. If so where it would be. I believe the se model has one and its behind the dash.

Thanks any help would be great. Austin.

It appears it does have one and it's built into the meters.

From what I can see it would be behind the dash. Unfortunetly I can't find the part anywhere. Would I need to get new wiring for both guages?

I just said it was built into the gauges.

Im not electrical savvy with the truck. Im not understanding why if both guages are going in and out simultaneously I would need to replace both. It seems to me the source would be in one place. That being the v/r. From what im getting. Each guage runs to its own v/r and they both have low voltage?

go up to the 'combination gauge' box at the upper right of the wiring diagram and note that there is only one lead #29 that powers both gauges thru one voltage regulator-v/r. hope this helps
