Glowshift sensor issue

Does anyone know a cheaper source for these sensors?



https://www.glowshiftdirect.com/repl...essure-sensor/











5V NPT1/8



The sensor was installed as a coolant pressure sensor for less than 2 weeks and is now giving incorrect readings.

Glowshift wants me to send it from Germany to the US for inspection before they send me a replacement, which takes too long.



Thank you.

I am certain there are more numbers than what you are showing. Google is your friend.

Installed as a "coolant pressure sensor"?
And now it is "giving an incorrect reading"
Explain all of that
The coolant pressure in the radiator should be around 15 pounds
That aftermarket "Boost" pressure gauge is made to read 30 to 50 psi
If you are blowing up radiators, it is time for new head gaskets

If that sensor is indeed for air, maybe the liquid cause the issue. I would think an oil pressure sensor would be a better idea.

Sorry, can't help you with your original question.

New Glowshift sensor to my door would cost me ~130€.
Therefore I'm looking for alternatives.
