Hola all,
i'm just trying to wire up my oil level sensor with a short tail of wiring that i removed from an e38 728i. it's a three pin plug which fits into the sensor plug but the wires don't correlate to what they are supposed to be in a 5 series. i have green/white, brown and grey/brown.
i know the colour of the wires don't really matter it's the positions of them that does but i don't know which pin should go where?
any help guys? cheers
