Hi,
see my post at the end of this thread: https://www.sl113.org/forums/index.php?topic=27267.msg195991#msg195991.
Functional principle and repair for a similar sender unit : http://www.hehlhans.de/tipp19.htm with this wire: NiCr6015, 170Ohm, 0,09mm, e.g. https://www.isabellenhuette.de/en/precision-alloys/products/more-alloys/#.
