fla 9 Posted October 22, 2005 I'm not getting any oil temp readings on the MFA. Firstly, which of the leads on the filter housing connects to the MFA and secondly are there any resistances that can be checked (to ground presumably) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RW1 0 Posted October 23, 2005 The oil temp sender is the one near the engine block on the driver's side of the top of the filter housing, not the two sitting side by side further forward away from the engine block. The wire colour is green / black stripe to fuse / relay panel, passes through the only break at the engine connector back nearside of the engine. Then black / white stripe from relay panel to instrument cluster. The oil temp sender on the VR6 is 0 – 150’C. At 20’C it measures 750 to 800 ohms to ground. At 95’C it measures 80 to 85 ohms. Measurements are the single connection relative to earth in isolation. Although the measurements can be done with the sender disconnected from the single green/black stripe wire on the car, if the sender is removed (oil!) it is fitted with a torque setting of 10Nm (7 lb ft). .
