vulcan bomber Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 The live goes to the bulb, bulb to switch. If you touch the wire terminal off the sender to a clean bit of the engine block the light should come on. If so, the sender unit is duff.

western Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 the sender is earthed via the engine block, the sender wire should be 12v live, as above most likely a dead sender unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see you have a 2.5td. I'm after a photo of the engine bay where the air-filter canister connects (to the chassis or where ever else...) After a re-chassis and loss of my photos I'm a bit stuck.. any photo much appreciated. Mark, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
