Walker 256-1243 Engine Oil Pressure Switch
Engine Oil Pressure Switch for OE Replacement
Walker 256-1243 is an OE replacement engine oil pressure switch built to monitor lubrication pressure and send the correct signal to the ECU or dash warning circuit when pressure drops below safe limits. It is a direct-fit solution for 2000-2002 Volkswagen Cabrio and 2002-2004 Volkswagen Jetta applications with 0.15-0.35 BAR specifications.
- OE-style pressure threshold, thread size, terminal type, and electrical response
- Metal and plastic construction for engine-bay durability
- 1 blade pin terminal with 1 female connector and 1 male terminal
- Direct replacement for factory-installed oil pressure monitoring circuits
- Blue finish and 55.00 length for application-specific fitment
Detailed Product Overview
Walker Products 256-1243 is engineered for accurate oil pressure monitoring in Volkswagen engines that rely on a switch-style warning circuit. When oil pressure falls below the specified range, the switch activates the warning light or control input so the driver or ECU receives a clear signal. For Volkswagen Jetta and Volkswagen Cabrio owners, this part number 256-1243 matches the OE-style electrical and mechanical requirements needed for proper operation.
Built with oil-resistant, high-temperature materials, this engine oil pressure switch is made to thread into the factory location without modification and connect to the existing harness. Walker 256-1243 supports consistent signal response in daily driving, service repairs, and engine rebuild work where accurate pressure warning is required.
Common Problems This Part Addresses
- 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
- Electrical signal loss at the factory oil pressure circuit
- Drivability concerns caused by an inaccurate pressure switch
Installation Notes and Fitment
Fits 2000-2002 Volkswagen Cabrio, N/A, 0.15-0.35 BAR. Fits 2002-2004 Volkswagen Jetta, N/A, 0.15-0.35 BAR. Verify the pressure specification, connector style, and thread match before installation. This part number 256-1243 installs in the original switch location and connects to the existing wiring without modification.
Quality Assurance
Walker Products manufactures this oil pressure switch to OE replacement standards for pressure threshold, terminal configuration, and electrical response. The design uses materials selected for prolonged exposure to engine heat and oil, supporting dependable warning-system operation in Volkswagen applications.
