sciroccotune 0 Posted January 30, 2006 hey guys, hope you can help cos i have tried a search but cant find all i need. :D I did see a good topic about this but could not find it again.. Im replacing the oil switches on my 2L16V. I have got a new white and black one. I have found that the white is high and the black is low pressure switch (i think). My last question is (assuming i got the right colour senders!?!) is which colour wire connects to which sender? the choice is blue and yellow. :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mk2_20vt 0 Posted January 31, 2006 Yellow wire is 1.8bar sensor and the blue/black wire is the .3bar sensor Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted January 31, 2006 Yellow goes to the 1.8 bar switch (white) Blue/black goes to the 0.3 bar switch (dark brown) Are you sure your sender is black? What pressure does it have stamped in the casing? * EDIT * Beaten to it :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sciroccotune 0 Posted January 31, 2006 Hey guys thanks for the help! I did buy a new black sensor, but I think id have been better off with a brown one as the black is to high i think. ill post the number later just incase anyone has this again. The vdo sender is currently replacing the low pressure one so it should be fine. When I fixed the led in the dash I also ended up playing with the wires and getting them the wrong way round so had beeps all the way to work :lol: All sorted now and ill get my £10 back for the new ones! In fact I think ill exchange them for a new header tank! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
