Speedo fault 2.3ducato

[Tunarfish]

Hi there , got a 2.3 jtd ambulance on a 53 plate that I'm converting, got a problem with the speedo not working and blowing fuse 11, seem to think after scraping around that it is down to the oil vapour heater? Can anyone tell me where it's located and possibly provide a photo?

Left of engine bay, between air filter box and engine, it's a two wire sensor in a breather hose.

Bob on, located said sensor in breather pipe ( in the dark with a big lamp) disconnected the plug, replaced fuse and started her up, checked fuse and it hadn't blown, will take her for a trundle tomorrow now to see if the speedo is working... fingers crossed!

Should be fine with it disconnected for a week or so while you get a new sensor. Good luck getting a new sensor/heater......... it was always a challenge for the parts man to find it.
