As a special option, two additional devices can be installed at the bottom right and left of the combined instrument panel – an oil temperature sensor and a voltmeter. Check:
Execution order
1. Oil temperature sensor: Disconnect the wire from the sensor (for mounting position, see next section), apply to the mass.
2. If the instrument arrow does not move, then the defect is in the supply wire, the microprocessor or the instrument itself.
3. Otherwise, the problem is in the sensor.
4. Voltmeter: Check the voltage at the voltmeter terminals with the combination instrument disassembled (the connector is connected).
5. If there is voltage, but there is no indication, then the device is faulty.
Mounting position of oil temperature sensor
Four-cylinder engine: The sensor is located on the oil filter flange on the left side of the engine. Wire color: blue/white.
Six-cylinder engine: The oil temperature sensor is located on the lower left side of the front side of the engine. Due to its difficult accessibility, the wires to the sensor are combined into one plug connector on the rear of the left cylinder head. The colors of the plug connection wires are: black/brown from the oil temperature sensor to the connector; blue/White from connector to combination instrument. Other connector wires: White/Gray to oil pressure switch.
In a four-cylinder engine, the oil temperature indicator sensor (1) and the oil pressure sensor (2) are located on the oil filter flange on the left side of the engine.
