Hi BobThx. for the reply. How is the sender electrically connected, and how is the sender mechiasnically mounted to your bracket?Thx.Ron Parigoris"> I mounted my oil pressure sensor on a piece of aluminum angle that was > bolted to the top of the passenger foot well.

Hi Bob"Here's where the installation of the remote sensor installation is documented: http://www.europaowners.org/forums/gallery2.php?g2_itemId=67636"It appears you may have tapped your aluminium bracket and that is how you are getting electrical ground to the mounting bracket mounting screw? Did you perhaps put a thin nut between sender and bracket? Perhaps a spacer that sandwisches the sender and bracket to make the electrical connection?Thx.Ron Parigoris [quote][b]
