Huh?
You replaced the switch several times?
Maybe you have a short in the wiring or a computer malfunction. Any codes?

After several replacements, i decided just to un-plug the sensor no chims,lights or warnings anymore..oh well, it didnt work anyway.

Why would you just unplug a vital sensor on your vette? That is insane. Have you had a Corvette tech look at the problem?After several replacements, i decided just to un-plug the switch, no chims,lights or warnings anymore..oh well, it didnt work anyway.
The sensor went out and gave irratic readings, i replaced 5 in 70,000 miles. the only codes were after the sensor failed and it was a high and low voltage code. no other problems found.Huh?

that sounds a bit extreme, im guessing the problem lies somewhere within the wiring as another member mentioned
ive lost an oil pump before and though it gets you a nice new engine just remember that you have to pay for it and the aftermath isnt exactly pretty (but i guess it does make a good coffee table :laughing: )

It's a temporery fix, i keep an eye on the temps until i can re-locate the sensor, aparently there are problems with sensors, if anyone has found a reliable one other then the oem, please let me know.that sounds a bit extreme, im guessing the problem lies somewhere within the wiring as another member mentioned

by the time temps are able to rise you've already hurt the block... in my case i never had any signs except it stalled once before the engine seized (the day before actually) and started right back up without a problem :crazy: (prolly shut down due to the sensor but the pump wasn't near enough to failure)
sometimes the warning signs aren't always so apparent

Mine went at 5k on my 2006. I sure the hell am not going for Warrantee work. I did some research. Very high failure rate.
Heres what I made: The heat kills them.
