The "check gauges" light in a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 commonly signals an oil or coolant leak, leading to a drop in pressure within the vehicle. To troubleshoot, check the fluid levels and refill if necessary. If the warning persists, consider the possibility of needing gasket and seal replacements to prevent internal leaks. Some drivers have encountered the "check gauges" alert, followed by failure to start. This is frequently caused by a defective oil pressure sending unit or oil pump. The vehicle may not start due to low pressures identified by the PCM. Other potential reasons could involve blockages in the oil pick up lines and pan filters, which may get obstructed by carbon and debris. Cleaning these components usually resolves the issue with pressure and the malfunction of the warning light.
