Walker 256-1024 Engine Oil Pressure Switch
Engine Oil Pressure Switch for OE-Style Monitoring
Walker 256-1024 is an OE replacement engine oil pressure switch built to monitor lubrication pressure and send the proper signal to the ECU or dashboard warning circuit when pressure drops below safe limits. It is a direct-fit solution for 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 3500 applications that need accurate oil pressure reporting.
- OE replacement engine oil pressure switch
- Fits 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 3500
- Brass and plastic construction with a black finish
- Pin-style terminal design with 1 female connector and 3 male terminals
- Matches OE pressure thresholds, thread size, terminal type, and electrical response
- Built with oil-resistant, high-temperature materials for engine bay exposure
Detailed Product Overview
Walker Products 256-1024 is engineered for direct replacement in the factory oil pressure switch location, typically on the engine block or oil filter housing. The switch is designed to restore accurate oil pressure signaling for Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500 trucks, helping the vehicle’s warning system respond correctly when lubrication pressure changes. This part number, 256-1024, is specified to match OE-style fit and electrical behavior for straightforward service on the 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 3500.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Problems This Part Can Address
- Oil warning light flickering or staying on
- False low-oil-pressure alerts
- No signal to the ECU or dash warning circuit
- Intermittent oil pressure indication
- Loss of reliable lubrication-system monitoring
Installation Notes and Tips
Install the switch in the original threaded location and connect it to the existing wiring harness without modification. Verify thread size, terminal layout, and connector style before installation, especially on 1998-2001 Dodge Ram 2500 and Dodge Ram 3500 trucks. If the oil warning light remains active after replacement, inspect the wiring, connector condition, and actual engine oil pressure to confirm system health.
Quality Assurance
Walker Products manufactures this oil pressure switch to OE specifications for pressure threshold, fit, and electrical response. High-temperature and oil-resistant materials support consistent operation in demanding engine environments.
