The Oil Pressure Switch from
Bosch (MPN: 0986345008) is sourced from Croatia (Hrvatska) and has supplier-listed dimensions of 57 x 33 x 33 mm. It is typically used within the Engine Parts > Lubrication System > Oil Pressure Sensor category of automotive replacement parts. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions.
Oil pressure sensors monitor engine oil pressure and transmit this data to the engine control unit (ECU) or instrument cluster. Typically threaded into the engine block or oil gallery, these sensors utilize a piezoelectric or strain gauge element to convert pressure into an electrical signal. Signal output is commonly analog (voltage-based) or digital (PWM or LIN protocol), varying by vehicle application. Accurate oil pressure readings are critical for lubrication system health, triggering warning lights or enabling engine protection strategies if pressure falls outside of acceptable parameters. Modern sensors often incorporate temperature compensation for precise readings across varying operating conditions.
