Walker 256-1086 Engine Oil Pressure Switch
Engine Oil Pressure Switch for OE-Style Monitoring
Walker 256-1086 is an OE replacement engine oil pressure switch built to monitor lubrication pressure and send the proper signal to the ECU or dash warning circuit when pressure drops below safe limits. It is a direct-fit solution for select Audi A3 and Volkswagen applications that require a 2.3-3.0 BAR switch response.
- OE replacement engine oil pressure switch
- Pressure threshold matched to factory specifications
- Thread size, terminal type, and electrical response designed for direct replacement
- Metal and plastic construction with oil-resistant, high-temperature materials
- 1 blade pin terminal, female connector, male terminal
- Brown finish with factory-style fitment
Detailed Product Overview
Walker Products 256-1086 is engineered for accurate oil pressure monitoring in the engine lubrication system. It threads into the factory mounting location, typically the engine block or oil filter housing, and connects to the existing wiring without modification. This part number is built for vehicles that rely on a 2.3-3.0 BAR oil pressure switch signal, including 2015-2016 Audi A3 and 2015 Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Golf SportWagen, Jetta, and Passat.
For buyers searching for an Audi A3 oil pressure switch or Volkswagen oil pressure switch replacement, Walker 256-1086 provides the OE-style electrical response needed to trigger the warning light or control input when oil pressure falls outside the expected range. This part number 256-1086 is also a practical choice during drivability repairs, scheduled maintenance, or engine rebuild work where factory-style pressure monitoring is required.
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 intermittently
- False low-oil-pressure warnings from a worn switch
- No warning signal when actual oil pressure drops
- Faulty ECU input from an inconsistent pressure switch signal
- Oil pressure monitoring issues after engine service or repair
Installation Notes and Fitment
Compatible With 2015-2016 Audi A3, N/A, 2.3-3.0 BAR. Compatible With 2015 Volkswagen Beetle, N/A, 2.3-3.0 BAR. Compatible With 2015 Volkswagen Golf, N/A, 2.3-3.0 BAR. Compatible With 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen, N/A, 2.3-3.0 BAR. Compatible With 2015 Volkswagen Jetta, N/A, 2.3-3.0 BAR. Compatible With 2015 Volkswagen Passat, N/A, 2.3-3.0 BAR.
Before installation, verify the connector style, thread engagement, and pressure rating against the original unit. The switch installs in the factory location and uses the existing electrical connection. Confirm the engine is cool and the lubrication system is not under pressure before removal.
Quality Assurance
Walker Products manufactures this oil pressure switch to match OE specifications for fit, terminal configuration, and pressure response. The design uses materials selected for prolonged exposure to heat and engine oil, supporting consistent operation in factory-style monitoring systems.
