Element Contact Alignment
With continuous insertion or rotation of the element sensor, the
element contact spring may change position slightly within the
element socket. In some cases, this change of position may result in
intermittent contact with the element giving erratic power readings.
The position of the contact spring may be adjusted with a small
screwdriver in order to reestablish contact.
The design of the DPS provides the ability for easy adjustments of the
contact if it becomes necessary by following these steps:
1. Using a small flat head screwdriver, place the flat side of the
screwdriver behind the contact bar as indicated and bend the
contact bar so that the contact rests in the center of the slot
adjacent to the element socket.
CAUTION
If the element stops short of full insertion, do not force the element
into the socket. Damage to the element or the sensor could result.
