Description

Keep an early eye on engine lubrication with the Walker Products Engine Oil Pressure Switch 256-1267 (also written 2561267), a direct-fit replacement for the 2010-2011 Volkswagen Jetta. This OE-replacement switch monitors engine oil pressure and signals the ECU or dashboard warning lamp when pressure falls below safe operating thresholds, giving you a heads-up about a low-oil condition before it turns into a bigger problem.

If a faulty original switch is behind a flickering oil light, false warnings, or no signal under actual low-pressure conditions, this unit replaces it and restores proper pressure-monitoring function.

  • Monitors oil pressure: Activates the dashboard warning or ECU input when oil pressure drops below safe operating thresholds.
  • Built for harsh conditions: Made with high-temperature and oil-resistant materials to withstand heat, oil exposure, and vibration in demanding engine environments.
  • OE-replacement calibration: Matches original specs for pressure activation point, thread pitch, terminal type, and electrical response.
  • Exact OE fit: Threads directly into the factory location—typically the engine block or oil filter housing—and connects to existing wiring with no modifications.
