Area Representative paul richards Posted August 12, 2019 Area Representative Share Posted August 12, 2019 Yes. Dissected a sender and it was a mess from ingress of water. It seems to get in around the electrical spade connector. I sealed this on the replacement and mounted remotely out of the direct weather (behind the radiator) and it lasted quite some time (6+ years) and was still going strong. I decided to replace with mechanical gauge as I preferred the less damped action and also the wider sweep of the needle giving a more accurate reading.

bjw Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Hi Paul,Interesting. (Your post shows as a reply to #30 but I'm guessing it was a reply to my question? - Forum bug.)Perhaps I should have asked '... found evidence of damage from vibration.'Flying against established wisdom perhaps, but I'm afraid I'm yet to be convinced that vibration is the villain in many, if any, of the failures...Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
