What pins on the instrument cluster have you connected your TOG to mate?
did you check the link i forwarded to you for pins to use?

I also got that link thanks again! :)

But it is for MK6 and the Instrument cluster Connector isnt the same as on ours pre facelift. Well it isnt same If you dont have a facelift with the White FIS display.
if i remember right The MK6, Leon Facelift etc.. Has 32 pins.

Pre facelift has 36 pins.

I noticed that before as i wanted to change to the Facelift instrument on my car. :p


But maybe could be same pins any way?
Will have to double check in Elsa Win to see if it is the same pin :)

Hi mate. Sorry I'd not been back in touch.

I'd looked at this link when you sent it. I had seen it before whilst searching.

Now when I looked on Elsawin I found this information;

The Pre Facelift cars have a 36 pin connector on the instrument cluster and from what I can see, pin26 on the 36pin plug is for Oil Temperature.

The facelift cars or 2009 onwards have a 32 pin plug on the cluster. Pin 11 on this 32 pin plug is for TOG.

The mk5 golf Gti is wired to pin26 also.

Hopefully, someone may be able to confirm this wiring or not.

I contemplated removing cluster again and trying pin11 but was reluctant to dive in.

Does this mean what I think it does? :seatgod:

That you've figured out how to wire the TOG sensor in?

Ah. I see.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

I've been wired into pin26 since day one. With no joy as you know. I don't "think" pin 11 on our clusters is correct. However, hopefully someone may have an answer to this.

Also to add.

I do get a voltage from pin26 so its not as if there's nothing there. The TOG Sensor works by heating the sensor, depending on how long the sensor takes to cool determines the oil level.

I daren't just willing illy rewire into pin11 IF it may cause damage. Elsawin does say pin 26 for oil temp for our cars, but to be honest there is no real information within Elsawin that I have seen to give conclusive proof as to whether or not it's possible.

I have asked quite a few people and all have been very helpful where they can. What I need is some more brain power on it lol. ie more trying to fit them as appears to be the case here. There is a member of leon2passion, but he has a facelift. It maybe ok for him however, as far as I'm aware he hasn't been successful yet.

Hi Michel,

Do you need to change the ABS control unit to get the ABS/ESP working, or the pump as well?

Hello Dan,

Yes you will need to change to Module. I bought the whole pump with module as i found it quite cheap togheter at Ebay. I havent changed mine yet so im stil driving without ESP ABS.

But will change it shortly. Car runs fine with out it but i have locked my tyres some times when braking hard and dont like that.

Cheers
