Defi's Oil Press Sensor

[voona]

Hi all,

Just wondering if you get the sensors with the Defi gauges, or control box? My Oil press sender might be crook (either that or my engine is on its last legs) and i was wondering if you get anyother one when you buy a defi gauge..

Cheers

The Control Unit 1/2 is exactly that only comes with extension cable.

All the gauges comes with holder, stand and sensor required.

What sort of oil pressure reading are you getting?

Ive seen it as low as 0 (no red light) sometimes 1 usually around 1.5-2. Its pritty strange ..

What does the oil pressure actually tell you about the engine??

Fellas, Skyline oil pressure guages are well known for this problem. The best thing to do is to get it to a mechanic & get a proper gauge put on as a check.

Failing that, replace the sender unit which, from memory, is located near the filter.

hmmm....doesnt sound right.

do you know where the defi sender is installed? might have a faulty one...

oil pressure gauge can tell you alot about your engine...

if there is a leak, if its on its last legs, time to change the oil... its a good idea to have

a proper gauge like the defi ones...

wouldnt trust the factory same as the water temp..
