Product Information
Full details
This Hella Oil Pressure Sensor Switch is designed for automotive applications requiring a reliable 12V, 1-pin oil pressure monitoring solution. It ensures OE-quality fitment and performance for compatible VW, Audi, and Skoda models, directly replacing original parts. A key benefit is its precise pressure activation range (0.3-0.6 bar), crucial for accurate oil pressure indication. However, users must verify exact vehicle compatibility and thread measurements before purchase.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
What does 'Normally Open Contact' mean for this sensor?
It means that the electrical circuit connected to the sensor is open (not conducting electricity) when the oil pressure is low (below 0.3 bar). When the oil pressure reaches or exceeds 0.6 bar, the contact closes, completing the circuit.
What is the activation pressure range?
The sensor is designed to activate (change its contact state) within a pressure range of 0.3 bar to 0.6 bar.
Can I use this sensor on a 24V system?
No, this sensor is specifically designed for 12V systems.
How do I know if this sensor is compatible with my car?
You must verify your vehicle's make, model, year, and original part number. Check that the thread size (M10x1), voltage (12V), and pin count (1) match your vehicle's requirements. OEM Cross References include AUDI, SEAT, SKODA. Compatible with various VW, AUDI, and SKODA models.
What tool do I need to install this sensor?
You will need a 24mm spanner to install or remove the sensor.
What is the recommended tightening torque?
The recommended tightening torque for this sensor is 20 Nm.
Does the color of the sensor matter?
Yes, the green color corresponds to the original part specification, indicating it is designed to meet specific OEM requirements for that application.
Troubleshooting
Oil pressure warning light stays on after installation
Verify the electrical connection is secure. Check that the engine oil level is adequate and that the oil pump is functioning correctly. Ensure the correct tightening torque was applied and that there are no oil leaks indicating a poor seal.
Oil pressure warning light turns on intermittently
This could indicate low oil pressure or a faulty sensor. Check the oil level and condition. If the oil is satisfactory, the sensor might be failing or the engine's oil pressure is indeed dropping.
The sensor does not fit the thread
Confirm that your vehicle's thread size is M10x1. If it is different, this sensor is not compatible. Double-check the vehicle's specifications against the product listing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Verification: Before installation, it is crucial to verify that this oil pressure switch is compatible with your specific vehicle model (VW, Audi, Skoda). Check your vehicle's original part number and specifications against the product details. Ensure the thread size (M10x1) and spanner size (24mm) are correct for your engine.
Installation:
- Ensure the engine is off and cool.
- Locate the existing oil pressure switch on the engine block.
- Carefully disconnect the electrical connector from the old switch.
- Use a 24mm spanner to unscrew the old switch. Be prepared for a small amount of residual oil to drain.
- Clean the mounting threads on the engine block.
- Screw in the new Hella Oil Pressure Switch, applying a tightening torque of approximately 20 Nm. Do not overtighten.
- Reconnect the electrical connector.
- Start the engine and check for any oil leaks around the switch.
Care: This is a sealed electronic component and does not require regular maintenance. Ensure the electrical connector remains clean and free of corrosion. Avoid exposing the sensor to excessive heat or harsh chemicals.
