Ok so I have that many random plugs that go no where in my car but this one is bugging me. Anyone know what its supposed to do? Im missing the plug off my standard oil pressure sender but it has 2 terminals where this plug only has one...

It comes out of the starter motor loom. Thanks in advance :)

Hmmm, that's aftermarket.

You didn't say anything about aftermarket.

Location of standard oil pressure sender switch.

Standard RB20DET.

Can't vouch for RB25DET but from memory they're the same.

Oil cooler..

You mean sandwich plate... ?

The oil filter goes onto that, and it bolts onto the block.

I've got a standard one yes.

RB20 or RB25 ?

Is there a bolt in the block somewhere around there? Might have been plugged up.

It's around 10 o'clock proximity to the oil filter. Might have to have a feel around for it.

Yeah crazy looking thing that the filter usually bolts onto, just convinced myself it was a cooler. Dont mind me haha

Think I found it, has a bolt plugging it up.

  • 3 weeks later...

correct me if im wrong but that looks like the standard oil warmer from an rb25.. but seems to have a different sender in it i believe.

i just recently put my mates c33 back together with a 25det and it had that same loom plug but only single pin on the pressure sender.

Yeah pretty sure I took the same thing off my other 25

I put the wire on the forward most terminal on the warmer thingy and seems to work like a normal on. Light comes on with ignition then goes off just after fire up. Thanks for the help guys :)

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
