Wtb R32 Water Temp Sender

[tikki169]

Hi as above I'm after a water temp sender for a R32 GTS-T. Looking for the one on the top of the engine bay near the thermostat and just after the radiator hose before it goes into the block

Thanks

There's 2 of them in that general location - do you want the single-pin (for the temp gauge) or the dual-pin (for the ECU)?

VL's sensors work..

I haven't tested R31 items.

I'm after the single pin one for the temp gauge. I have tried the VL one and it doesn't register anything. Waste of $15 that was.

Then it's likely you should be looking for a new gauge, not a new sender.

Try connecting the sender wire direct to earth - the gauge should go full-scale.

The gauge isn't the issue. I have a resistor in there at the moment so it at least registers half. I've tried different resistors and the gauge position will change. Also tried a VDO sender by putting it in boiling water and that registers, only problem wiith the VDO sender is that it's huge and needs an adaptor.

What do nissan charge for a sender? I'll call them tomorrow after the public holiday

Thanks
