Full model list at the end of this description.

⚙️ Key Features

• Dedicated WID drive-oil contamination sensor
• Installed in the OceanX/DPI drive oil circuit
• Sealed marine electrical connector
• Supports early warning before bearing and gear damage
• Sensor assembly only; drive harness and sealing parts are separate unless supplied
• Engine type: Volvo Penta sterndrive propulsion system

🔌 Function

Detects a change in drive-oil electrical properties caused by water ingress and alerts the operator through the monitoring system.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Persistent water-in-oil warning with clean oil
• No warning during a confirmed contamination test
• Corroded connector or damaged wiring
• Oil leakage around the sensor installation
• Intermittent warning caused by moisture in the connector

🛠️ Service Notes

• Note how the sensor sits and how its lead is routed before removing it, and support the harness so refitting does not leave the cable strained or rubbing
• Turn the sensor with a spanner on its hex only — never lever or twist it by the connector body or the wiring, which breaks the internal joint even when the sensor looks undamaged
• Renew the O-ring or sealing washer where one is fitted, and do not add thread sealant unless the manual for your engine specifies it; sealant on the threads can break the earth path of a sensor that earths through its body
• Tighten to the figure in the workshop manual for your engine — overtightening distorts the housing and shifts or destroys the sensing element
• Make sure the connector is clean, dry and fully latched home and check the pins for corrosion and spread — a poor connector accounts for a great many faults blamed on the sensor — then run the engine and confirm the reading or warning lamp behaves sensibly before returning the boat to service
