Turbo boost gauge not working 700

All,

On my 1986 760T the turbo boost gauge is not working. The needle stays at the lower end of the yellow part of the scale.

I recently rebuilt the engine and replaced the turbo so I suspect that I did not hook up something properly. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Alan

Chuck is probably correct, the only reason I say probably is because when my vacume hose line was not connected to the boost gauge the gauge needle read at 12:00.... as well as others that I have had the same problem...

Best Regards,
