068-919-081A Oil Pressure Switch 0.9 Bar Grey - Audi 100 4000 VW Golf Jetta

Oil Pressure Switch (0.9 Bar) – 068-919-081A

The 068-919-081A is a grey-coded oil pressure switch calibrated to trigger at 0.9 Bar. This single-pin sensor is a fundamental component of the dynamic oil pressure warning system found in many VAG vehicles. It monitors high-RPM oil pressure (typically above 2000 RPM) to ensure the engine is adequately lubricated during driving speeds.

When this switch fails, it often triggers a flashing oil light and an audible warning buzzer in the instrument cluster. Replacing a leaking or electrically faulty switch is a simple yet critical maintenance task to ensure your engine's safety monitoring system remains accurate.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

• Washer Replacement: Always use a new aluminum or copper crush washer to ensure a leak-proof seal against the oil filter housing.

• Torque Specification: Hand-tighten and then snug with a wrench (approx. 20-25 Nm). Do not over-torque, as the threads in the oil filter flange can strip easily.

• Wire Inspection: Before installing, check the single wire lead for cracked insulation or a loose spade connector, as these often cause "phantom" oil warnings.
