Standard Ignition Engine Oil Pressure Switch P/N:PS-439
Keep tabs on engine oil temperature with the Standard Ignition Engine Oil Temperature Switch, part number PS-264. This switch monitors engine oil temperature and changes its circuit state when the oil reaches its set point, sending that signal to the vehicle's systems. It fits many Volkswagen models, including the 1991-2001 Volkswagen Jetta, 1992-1997 Volkswagen Passat and 1993-2001 Volkswagen Golf, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. The Buyer's Guide tab has the full list.
A failing oil temperature switch can cause erratic, missing or incorrect oil temperature signals, and a leaking switch body may let oil seep at the mounting point. If the original switch is the cause, PS-264 replaces it. Diagnose the circuit first, since wiring and connectors can produce similar symptoms.
