Hi Bob,

This sensor is wired directly to the instrument pack. Did you manage to place your meter across the black/slate and orange wires with the sensor still connected? If it was disconnected then your reading may be unreliable depending upon the circuit design inside the IPK.

We know that the minus 30 reading results from an open circuit. There's just one connector involved. It's a six pin grey square plug/socket and you'll find it in the front corner of the engine compartment on the LH side near the fog lamp (the other pins carry the lamp's harness). Check that the orange and black/slate connections are making good contact. I can send you a photograph if you need it.

Thanks Simon I’ll pass the info onto Matt when I’m back at his place as there are still a few jobs to be done on Banana.
