Anyone know if the temp sensor wire that connects to the sender is still available from Porsche or one of the usual online resources? If so, which one?
Thanks, Kev |

??? there's nothing special about the wire. why not just run an 18 ga wire with solder or crimp on spade connectors? to me, a "temperature sensor wire" sounds like the wire from the taco plate to the connector under the battery.

That's the one, in the engine compartment. Just wanted one with the plastic sheath like the original. Don't have the proper crimp tool for the automotive quality connectors. I know, I'm being anal but I hate chasing electrical problems and hate even worse the poor quality crimp style connectors available locally.
