FAQs

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a 24mm spanner, a wrench or socket set, and possibly a torque wrench.

What does the 'switch point' mean?

The switch point (5 bar) is the oil pressure level at which the sender unit will trigger the warning light or gauge reading.

Can I use this unit in a 12V vehicle?

No, this unit is designed for 24V systems only.

How do I check if my engine is compatible?

Verify your engine's specifications for the thread size (M18 x 1.5) and the required voltage (24V).

Where is the oil pressure sender unit located?

Typically, it is located near the oil filter or on the engine block. Consult your vehicle's service manual.

What is the control range?

The control range (0.25+0.15 bar) relates to how the sender monitors the oil pressure.

Is it possible to use a different switch point?

No. You must use a unit with the correct switch point for your engine.

Troubleshooting

The febi bilstein 09612 may be faulty. Replace the unit, ensuring proper installation and connection. Verify the new unit is compatible with the car.
