Hi All,

Hoping that someone could help with a VP trim sender part number question, my outdrive is a DP-S (D3-160 engine).

A label on the sender wiring reads 3840830, however I cannot find this number referenced anywhere in any Volvo diagrams or suppliers website.

Would anyone know what the correct part number for this (2-wire) trim sender is?

many thanks
 
Graham,

Thanks for the link, I'm just a little nervous shelling out the £££ given that the label on the wiring reads 3840830 and not the part number listed on the linked diagram (3594989).

Still in a bit of a quandry?
 
Volvo use a part number to identify a part but if it's sold in a box and has an instruction leaflet then the whole kit will have a separate part number that's put on the box.
Part 123 plus leaflet 345 makes item supplied 678



However if you ask your supplier for a part number they will confirm if it's a current number or has been superseded and you can ask them to check whats in the box before they dispatch.
 
Volvo part numbering enigma

Just in case anyone else has this problem and to close out on this thread, it does turn out that the part number that I was looking for which was 3840830 is actually 3594989.

The frustrating part is that it (3840830) was that it was not 'searchable' in the local VP service group's computer system by that number nor could it be found by the transom number. So gleaning the number from the part itself did not help.

I must say however that the local VP agent was excellent and brought in several trim senders in order to physically match up the part - without his help I'd still be looking!

Graham & Scottie your points were well made...I've included a photo in case that helps anyone in the future, cheers.
