Hi everyone,

My oil temp reading on my VM1000 will initially work and usually stays on for around 30mins. Then the reading drops to 26' and stays like that for awhile (sometimes 30-40 mins, sometimes it comes back quicker) - eventually it will come back. Any help would be appreciated...Is it time to just upgrade the system? If so any advice and a good avionics shop in NorCal? I am near Sacramento and still a student pilot. Thanks in advance!

Bob mills just went through this. 26 is a code for a bad sensor. He was actually able to repair his old sensor but got a new one. The new sensor is a bit flaky sometimes too- it will read 319 once in a while.
 
Steve Smith - any knowledge of where Bob was able to obtain a new sensor? Thanks,
