Part Number Needed

[stormspike]

I have the S52 in and running great for the last year. My E30 cluster died a month ago and I just picked up a nice M3 E30 cluster with the oil temp gauge. My question, what is the part number of the sender for the S52 that will work on that cluster? Any special wiring harness needed for it? Thanks!

1, You need an S14 oil temp sender.
2, you run a single wire from the sender plug along the engine harness and pin it to C101 terminal 19.

He will also need to run a wire from the c101 pin 19 to the cluster. Pin 19 is only used in the m3 wiring so it will not have a pin on either side of the plug for a regular e30.

So the regular E30 harness will not have a C101 pin 19 wire on the cluster side to connect? So, I need to run a wire to the C101 pin 19 on engine side and a wire from there to the cluster? I will order the oil cap with tap for sensor. Do I need to order the plug for the cluster side?
thanks!!

Also, since I have not done too much electrical work, how hard is it to run the wire up to the cluster from the C101 terminal?

If you don't know how to run one wire from the C101 to the cluster you shouldn't be doing a swap, you even asking kind of makes me worried.

Not to be a dick or anything.

Sorry for sounding stupid on this, Terry Sayther in Austin did the engine swap and I have done rear end, trans, exhaust work, but have not removed the cluster or done electrical work on the harness. Just wanted to get an idea before I take out the old one and get the new one in. I have the UUC oil center ordered and the sender ordered from pelican parts today.
Anyway, Ill post some pics once the new cluster is in and working.

Hopefully the new seats get done soon so I can get the sports in and the old comfort seats out...

It's as easy as reading a ETM/Wiring diagram and running a wire to the back of the cluster. If reading a ETM scares you then leave it to the pro's. I'm sure Terry's shop can handle it.

[stormspike]

I think I can handle it. Anyway, Terry is down in Austin and I am in north Dallas.
