| Take it back to the dealer again? Could be a second bad sensor. Could be a bad connector on the sensor. Could be a pinched wire. Could be a bad indicator. Could be bad luck. Could be bad karma. |

| Like Science Guy said - any one of those. I could easily figure it out for you in a few minutes if I did not live so gfar away  A meter can tell you if the signal line is open - that would be my guess. That oil temp sensor is simple VDO drain-plug unit, like this:  If they replaced that, I say open connection or bad ground. Then the gauge.
