roborob 1 #1 Posted April 11, 2021 I found two posts related to my same issue but I'm hoping someone might have more detail. I have a 520XI with what seems to be a bad temp sensor (94-7619) which is apparently discontinued. I checked the resistance through the sensor and it seems to just show open loop no matter what. Some suggestions were to try an automotive temp sensor with the same threading, has anyone tried this already and had a successful fix? perhaps you can recall what part number or which vehicle it came from if so. Thanks for any help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,499 #2 Posted April 11, 2021 Worth giving Pat's a try as they still have it priced. You can likely send an email to confirm. They also have a flat rate shipping charge so if you need other parts........... https://www.psep1.biz/arinet.asp#/s/TO//94-7619/1/ Garry 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for your help though! If anyone else has run into replacing the Oil Temp Sensor with an alternative, please let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
