re: shorting out an unwanted sensor

Hi

>>I just shorted the cable of
the level sensor.  Should I have used some resistor?<<

I think shorting out this one is acceptable. I think that the
oil level sensor measures the resistance between two
contacts, which are either an open circuit (low oil) or
joined by the oil.

All the best
