Oil Temp Sensor Harness

When I was under the car the other day I noticed that the corrigated harness sleeve from the engine oil level / temp sensor ( 1J0 907660 C ) was breaking up and the retaining harness clip had also broken.

I bought some new split sleeving from the Bay of E for about £3 (1 metre ). You need a I/D of 5mm with a O/D of 7.1mm. I also made up a small bracket and used a P clip to secure the harness in position (see pics).

The length of the fitted sleeve is about 200mm. I also checked with my Multi meter that the current was getting through to the sensor.

The corrigated sleeve end slids into some existing heat resistant sleeving further along then a tye-wrap to hold the two together.
