It means that when the oil pressure is low (below 0.35 bar), the electrical contact within the switch is closed, allowing current to flow. When the oil pressure reaches the specified operating range (above 0.55 bar), the contact opens, interrupting the current.
You must verify your vehicle's make, model, and year against the compatibility list provided by Hella or your vehicle manufacturer. Confirming the original part number and specifications like thread size (M10x1) is essential.
This sensor is designed to operate within a pressure range of 0.35 to 0.55 bar.
No, this switch is specifically designed for 12V systems. Using it in a vehicle with a different voltage system can lead to malfunction or damage.
You will primarily need a 24mm spanner to remove and install the switch. Ensure you also have appropriate tools for disconnecting and reconnecting the electrical wiring.
Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the time of purchase. Please refer to your sales receipt or contact the seller for details on the warranty period and terms.
Yes, the blue color indicates that this switch corresponds to the original part's color specification for certain vehicles, aiding in identification during replacement.
Double-check that the electrical connector is securely attached. Verify that the oil pressure in the engine is actually within the normal operating range (above 0.55 bar when running). If pressure is confirmed normal, the switch may be faulty or there may be an issue with the wiring or the warning light system itself. Consult a mechanic.
The sensor may not be tightened enough, or the threads may be damaged. Ensure the mounting surface is clean. Try tightening the sensor slightly (do not overtighten). If the leak persists, the sensor may need to be removed, inspected for thread damage, and potentially replaced, possibly with new thread sealant.
Ensure the electrical connection is sound and the vehicle's electrical system is functioning correctly. Confirm that the engine is indeed operating below the specified 0.35-0.55 bar range. If all other factors are normal, the sensor may be defective and require replacement.
