I have brought a Defi Oil Press. gauge and it comes with a new pressure switch.

When I remove the old one what will happen to the wire connected to the old switch. Do I need to connect it with the new switch??

On my Defi's the standard oil pressure wire is not connected, and my oil pressure warning light is in the gauge itself now, using the new sender.

Not sure, but I am personally not bothered if the warning light is on the dash or on the gauge in font of me.

Steve -

If the hole over 3 is used, where will the Oil Temp sender go?

Exclamation

I think, ususally, the original sensor (or switch, as it's more of an on/off) can be relocated to the rear of the engine, where there is a blanking plug in a hole already (over No 3 ??)

I think this whole is different size to the sensor, so you'll have to get an adaptor, but shouldnt be more than a tenner.

Not sure if the wiring will reach, or need to be extended!
will find out when my DEFI's arrive!
