Post by PeterMann »

Where should I look for the Oil Pressure Sensor on a series 2 BX ?

Hiya
It's under the inlet manifold - if you shine a torch down between the inlet tracts you should be able to see a pair of sender units more or less next to each other.
I believe one is the oil pressure warning light (the one that generally always works) and the larger one is the gauge sender, which can pack up but is usually either bad wiring or a crack in the solder joint on the back of the dash.
Hope that helps
Adrian

Thanks Adrian. Will take a look tomorrow in the daylight . . . not that it will be very bright under the inlet manifold.
