have checked fuse and fuse is ok . sensor is only 5 months old from gsf have been told i can exchange it for another one on production of mot emissions print out so whinged about the fact the cost would be as much as just buying a new one lol so then got told i can just bring a print off from vcds instead (must be their xmas spirit) lol

I had this with a sensor for a very similar engine and it was made by Beru. Do you own a multimeter?

i do have a multimeter . i have also used 1/2 tank of fuel in 4 days and done about 45-50 miles on it . grrr
