How many oil switches????



Ok So I know that one is there...
How about on the side of the head? Is there one there for the 82's Or is that for models that come later?
I have seen an Oil switch there on other 8V Sciroccos, But I have yet to encounter a properly working 82 to make the comparison.
 
The one that you mention is the little one towards the front of the car and there is another that hooks up on the top of the oil flange that is the sender for the Oil Temp gauge (Cel*)
 
I still have to find where the main blk/blu wire comes from the harness. Anyone know?
 
I have to guess that the engine may have been replaced on my car or that some work was done that entailed cutting those wires. I guess this cause when I first got the car the Oil Temp wire was cut and tucked into the casing that bundles a group of wires comming into the engine bay. But I could not find the lead for the Oil switch(buzzer)
 
TIA,
Tony

IIRC, On my 82, the front switch on the oil filter housing (i.e. the one
closest to the radiator) was where I installed the pressure switch for the
VDO gauges. This is the one that tells your buzzer to sound when your
pressure drops too low.

Ok So here is something that has me puzzeled

How many Oil pressure switches are there in an 82 Scirocco......I have
looked at the diagrams on the Bently and for the looks of it is only one.
(but most people keep telling me 2)

Also I know that the wire that is supossed to be hooked to said switch is
blk/blu Well guess what I can not find the freeking wire....I assumed that
it would be with the bundle that has the Temp wire and the Oil temp wire,
but no luck ????

Anyone have clarity on this?

Tony
