Auto Box Oil Temperature

(1/3) > >>

BigA:
After a great weekend at billing, and amongst all the other bits that failed, or i broke (Or SWMBO) i have a problem that i need help with please :?

the day after i got back, after cleaning, including a jet wash of the engine bay, i went for a short drive to find any more issues than i already had, and after a short while, my Auto Transmission oil temperature light came on. after about 200 yards it went of so i thought ho hum not to worry.

Disco then sat on drive for a day, whilst i replaced power steering box, and sorted a few other issues.

This morning, i come out to go to work, turn on the disco and the "Auto Transmission oil temperature light" came on and is staying illuminated.

so to cut a long story short (a bit late i know).... is this likeley to just be a sensor fault, dodgy connection etc. or worse  :'(

if it is a sensor, where am i likely to find it, its an M reg 300 TDI Disco.

thanks in advance for any help.

Sensor is in one of the oil cooler pipes at the rear of the front cross member where the rubber and metal of the pipe meets behind the rad.

i had noticed that and was hopeing it was the case. Time to get checking connections, and get the WD40 out. Not the best place to be located when SWMBO has been driving off road  ;) (could not have been my driving of course  :afro: )

cheers for now

karlo:
Check the metal part of the pipes where they go through the metal bracket underneath the engine as one of mine rubbed through on the bracket.

Does the light come on when you crank the engine as a bulb test?
