Hi gang!
I have the Van's Oil Pressure Switch for light and Hobbs. Can I use the same signal being sent to the oil pressure transducer on the firewall manifold to activate/deactivate the oil pressure switch?
Here's the plan - there is a braided hose with a special fitting on the accessory case end that goes from the accessory case to the firewall manifold. I have the oil pressure transducer on the manifold at that same location. I would like to attach, (with assorted plumbing and fittings), the pressure switch to that same section of the manifold and have both receive the signal from the same hose. Doable?
See pictures....
The transducer with a plug in the extra hole.
The switch in question also with 1/4 NPT
...... and what do the letters on the end mean "NC", "NO", "C". I sure wish Van's had included an instruction sheet with the part itself.
