Has anyone with a G3X configuration had an issue with their oil temp sensor?
Thanks!

Hi Mike,
Yes, I did I was getting some erroneous reading in flt. I traced it back to the molex connector. One on the pins had backed out of the connector its self……. I replaced the pin made sure the connector was tightly secured problem solved. I did order a new oil sensor, but sent it back.

If those connectors break contact you will get high temp readings or they will rapidly go up and then back down. I had it happen so often that I took the connector out of the system and used a good German connector. Ed

Hi Ed,
Great Idea! I did the repair on my connect after 120 hours its still perfect 👍🏻 But if it does fail again I will use your method 😊

Thank you for everyone’s input. Sure enough—sensor wire bad connection at the junction box. Easy-peasey fix for my AnP after he read your posts. dePlane now just waits on some better weather.

I had the same problem in my P2002 MKII after 400 hours. problem solved by soldering the pins to the sensor wires. ED what kind of German connector did you use? Thank you Eytan
