Charging System Gauge; Engine Oil Pressure Gauge - Ford Probe Owner's Manual

The fuel gauge indicator may vary slightly while
the vehicle is in motion. This is the result of fuel
movement within the tank. You can get a more
accurate reading with the vehicle on smooth,
level ground.

Charging System Gauge

This gauge tells you your battery's voltage when
you turn your ignition key to ON. When you
start your engine, the pointer should move to
the NORMAL range if you are not operating
any electrical accessories. (If electrical accessories
are operating and the engine is not running, the
pointer may move into the red area).
If the pointer moves into the red area when no
electrical accessories are operating, have the
vehicle's electrical system checked.

Engine Oil Pressure Gauge

The gauge needle should stay in the NORMAL
range (indicating normal engine oil pressure). If
the needle drops below the NORMAL range into
the low range, there is a loss of oil pressure.
If this happens:
1. Pull off the road as soon as safely possible.
2. Shut off the engine immediately or severe
engine damage could result.
3. Check the oil level when the vehicle is on
level ground.
4. Add only as much oil as the engine needs
before you drive the vehicle again. Do not
overfill the oil reservoir. For more
information, see Adding engine oil in the
Index.
