Re: VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

The Vans booked In to a garage on Thursday so will see what they say. I'll check the switch again tonight. I used the other coloured ones for comparison but they may be differently setup. I.e nc vs no. Will check again tonight. The one fit originally, I'm sure was closed o back to square one if that...

Re: VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

I'll buzz out all the wiring too before I fit just incase there is anything else wrong in the circuit.

Re: VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

Ok so I went out to the van at my parents. The switch removed was a dead short between the spade and threads. Compared with the new ones I bought and they're all open circuit. So like you said, so cheers for the info on the switches. So basically no low pressure in the system in theory and should ju...

Re: VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

Ok cool. I'll check the wiring out this week sometime once I get a meter from work. No doubt I'll find the issue isn't even where the switch was rotating. The way it's gone so far with this thing

Re: VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

Ok cool. No knocking. Sounds real good at all times. I'll get a meter and check the original one out.

I don't for the helicoil but can hopefully find someone local. There's a garage local that my dad knows someone at. They should manage

Re: VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

Yeah blue one between push rod tubes. Hoping it's the switch that's gone. Is there an easy way to test the original one standalone Vs the new one or would that involve me having to apply pressure to it. Or is it easier just to deal with the fitment of the new one then see if issue still exists or no...

VW T25 1.9l oil pressure switch

Just wanted to check incase I create a lot of unecesssary work but I think what I'm saying is the only option. My T25 was red lighting on the oil light on startup. It would go off after approx 5 mins.As such I figured pump or pressure switch. The blue switch I think which is fit to the location used...
