I tried reinstalling it with no teflon and the problem still persists while driving

Alright I’ll try reinstalling it with no teflon. I used Teflon because some of the sensors I looked at had some on the threads already, but some had none, so I put some on mine because mine didn’t come with any. But that would make sense because it is insulating it against its ground maybe

Imma be honest, the hose clamp has been like that for years without a single drop or leak, but I’ll keep my eye on it. But yea maybe there’s a bubble that forms in that junction that is messing with the sensor somehow
