Beck/Arnley Engine Oil Pressure Switch P/N:201-1987
Keep an accurate eye on engine oil pressure with the Beck/Arnley Engine Oil Pressure Switch 201-1515. This switch senses oil pressure in the engine's lubrication system and signals the dash gauge or oil-pressure warning lamp, so the driver is alerted when pressure falls outside the normal range. It's a direct-fit replacement for a long list of BMW models, including the 1991-1998 318I, the 1987-1995 and 2001-2006 325I, the 1996-2000 and 2007-2013 328I, the 2007-2011 335I, the 2006-2016 550I, and the 2006-2015 750LI — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of 110 applications.
Signs this switch may need replacing include an oil-pressure warning light that stays on or won't illuminate, or an erratic reading. If a failed switch is the cause, replacing it with the 201-1515 restores the correct signal; diagnose the cause before ordering.
