Hi Andrew, Sorry I didn't check this thread earlier. I have attached the wiring diagram for the Vögel IG38 I found on line somewhere. Doen't add much to what you already know, but I thought I'd post it for completeness. Mark |

Russell soldering was my first idea but not yet having seen it i'm not sure if the plastic the spades are embedded in will take soldering heat - many modern electronics bits melt as you solder them - D type connectors being a case in point! I'd also wondered about the numbers - the new one is 5 bar - it's only checking that a reasonable pressure is reached and no pipe has popped off so 5 should be fine as it's not controlling the pump. Matthew yes I had that in mind - always like to see causes, but with this one I want to make an adaptor so the I can pump it up and check it out of the pump before destroying it. Mark, thanks for that - added to my Vogel library :thumbup: |

As long as there is no water present, Sulphur can't give corrosion issues. A lot of the panic comes about when there is potential for H2O from either condensation or combustion products. |

The replacement pressure switch arrived by post this morning, so I've fitted it using the brass adapter that I made. Interestingly when I came to the electrical connections, one of the original crimped spade lugs had already fallen off and the second fell off when I touched it . The copper cable where it emerged from the crimp had completely corroded through! So I reckon that there is a good chance that the original pressure switch is actually fine. I must make an adapter up to test it under pressure. Cutting the cable back and crimping on 'female spade lugs' I assembled it and slavered 'liquid electrical tape' all over the crimps externally, hopefully excluding oil ingress in future. Messy runny stuff to use ! Can't put it back in the oil tank until this gunge has set so later this evening probably. |

Always good to find the smoking gun... Seems highly likely that was the issue. -russ |
