before i ask yes i used the search ..

 

found loads of post regarding the Sender unit failing but not what i'm going to ask

 

as the OEM sender is like £75>100

 

can a Universal one be used like this ?

as i asume the out put volt should be the same

any one tryed it ?

LOL.. as with almost anything OEM "kind of"... aside from he rubber boot not fitting snug...

thread an size of the unit are the same but the connection has two prongs (not just one). I'm tempted to cut the wire and put a new female spade connector on it and remove the runner boot but it's working fine for now.

so I took a guess and it worked, maybe I should have connected to the other one as well to test (you know confirm it's the wrong one).

I'll take a pic of a new one (or do a diagram) and point out the connector I used.

I'll also confirm stocks and availability with the guys and give you some contact details.

Anything to report on this.

yeah, did my first run up the motorway and it works fine....

 

I've already mentioned to the guys about getting some in stock.... they said OK...

I'll bother them again today to see how they are getting on.

OK... they will let me know when they have them (should be a couple of days)...

 

I used the connector on the bottom of the unit that looks like the top part of a "T"

Did they get back to you about these sender units.

 

cheers Paul

Hi,

 

yeah, I haven't forgotten or stopped asking them... they have been on order since I asked them but for some reason they still haven't arrived, I've been assured that they will be chasing them today... nice at the price but a bit pointless if they can't get them !!!

 

I'll post as soon as they're in stock... :)

yes please keep us updated very intrested in this

limited stock (I'm trying to find out how many)... :) happy hunting...

LOL...

my mate tells me that after all the waiting & trouble getting hold of these units that they haven't had any calls about them at all....

they have two in stock and will most likely have another couple by the end of the week...

 

as far as I know you can't get them cheaper than this anywhere!!! :)

 

Oh and yes mine is still working fine.

bump ..
