To complete the work you will need:
- viewing ditch or overpass;
- multimeter.
Removing
1. We prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
2. Disconnect the wire tip from the oil level sensor.
3. Using the socket head, unscrew the sensor mounting bolt.
4. We remove the sensor from the hole in the engine block.
Examination
1. Connect a multimeter (in ohmmeter mode) to the housing and the output of the sensor.
2. By moving the float from one extreme position to another, we measure the electrical resistance of the sensor. In the extreme upper position, the resistance should be infinitely large...
... and in other positions about 0 Ohm.
Recommendation. Replace defective sensor.
Installation
Install the sensor in reverse order.
