Oil pressure switch threshold

[ike84]

Does anyone know the threshold for activation of the OEM oil pressure switch (aka dummy light)? Bonus points if you know what it is for the 996 sender/switch combo. Thanks!

Never mind, I think I found it.

I know the stock sensor in a 996 is a 5 bar sender/switch combo with a m14x1.5 thread. Vdo has an exact match for this sensor, and the technical specs are here.

Idiot light comes on at .5 +/- .15 bar. Seems pretty low to me (that could be as low as 4psi). But hey, what do I know.
