Walker 256-1286 Engine Oil Pressure Switch
Engine Oil Pressure Switch for OE Replacement
Walker 256-1286 is an OE replacement engine oil pressure switch built to monitor lubrication pressure and send the correct signal to the ECU or dashboard warning circuit. It is a direct-fit solution for select Audi A3 and Volkswagen models, including 2015-2016 Audi A3 and 2015 Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Golf SportWagen, Jetta, and Passat with 0.30-0.60 BAR specifications.
Key Features
- OE replacement engine oil pressure switch for factory-style pressure monitoring
- Matches OE requirements for pressure threshold, thread size, terminal type, and electrical response
- Blade terminal design with 1 female connector and 2 male terminals
- Built with metal and plastic construction for engine-bay exposure
- Green housing with a direct-fit layout for the original mounting location
- Walker 256-1286 is designed for select Audi A3 and Volkswagen applications
Detailed Description
Walker Products 256-1286 is an engine oil pressure switch engineered to replace the factory unit on vehicles that rely on accurate oil-pressure signaling. It threads into the original location, typically the engine block or oil filter housing, and connects to the existing wiring without modification. For drivers searching for an oil pressure switch for 2015-2016 Audi A3 or a replacement oil pressure switch for 2015 Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, Passat, Beetle, or Golf SportWagen, this part provides the OE-style fit and electrical response needed for proper warning-system operation. The switch is built from oil-resistant, high-temperature materials to maintain consistent performance in demanding engine conditions.
Common Issues This Part May Resolve
- Oil warning light flickering or staying on
- False low-oil-pressure warnings on the dash
- No warning signal when oil pressure drops below safe limits
- Faulty ECU input from a worn or failed pressure switch
- Intermittent oil-pressure signal during normal driving
Installation Notes and Tips
Install the switch in the factory oil-pressure port and verify the connector style before installation. Confirm the application by year, make, model, and the 0.30-0.60 BAR specification listed for the vehicle. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Quality Assurance
Walker builds this oil pressure switch to OE specifications so it matches the original pressure threshold and electrical behavior required for reliable warning-system operation. Walker 256-1286 is intended for direct replacement use in the listed Audi and Volkswagen applications.
