Hi Paul ,

Whats yours reading ?

Might be worth you knowing that at times some cars read zero when hot , this is normaly a dirty conection on the terminal on the sender unit and not an internal problem.

All the Best Clive

Hi Clive

That sounds about right, seems to be very intermittent. Do you know (silly question i\'m sure) where it is located so I can clean as suggested.

Thanks

Paul
