Subject:      Re: oil pressure switch 2 - HELP
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Ok, null that call for help. I got a hold of the service guy and they had told me it was the high pressure switch that was leaking, but in fact, it was the low one. And the switch installed IS the right part number for the low one. Funny, all the oil seemed to be leaking from the rear which would jive with the high, but guess it was just being blown that way.

So, now to determine why the blasted thing is buzzing. I think I'll start with an oil and filter change as I have no idea what weight they put in. Guess I'll do it myself this once.

hmm - theory, could the pressure be too high cause the low switch to start leaking due to the pressure and now that the leak is plugged the high pressure sensor is seeing it and complaining?

ugh, thanks to all anyway, Tonya 87 Vanagon GL Wolfs
