Pressure Switch

  1. Start engine and run at idle. Disconnect hose from pressure switch at intake manifold. Connect pressure gauge and pump (cooling system tester) to pressure switch hose.
  2. Increase pressure with pump and check pressure at which engine cuts out. Reading should be 13.1-14.5 psi (.92-1.02 kg/cm2 ). If not, replace pressure switch.
NOTE: To avoid damage to transducer connector, apply test probes on the same side that ohmmeter cables enter connector.
