Title: oil pressure switch testing
Post by: billdn on March 21, 2017, 07:41:37 PM

Is there a way of testing an oil pressure switch to see if it works. i appear to have continuity in the wire but not sure if the switch works. it is not a new part and is part of the very long rebuild re-using as many parts as i can .

Being bit thick here -guess air line goes on base that goes in oil pump . What psi would you recommend? Not sure what to do with multimeter..part is not fitted to bike.  :)

Doddle, thanks for the clip. Easy when you know how or more exact someone shows you. Cheers.
