Citroen Xsara Picasso 1.6 Hdi 90 Oil Pressure Switch Location

Post by chrisfox15 »

I am looking for some help in locating the oil pressure switch on my Citroen Xsara Picasso 1.6 Hdi 90. I have looked everywhere and cant see to spot it, I was expecting it to be around the oil filter house / Oil Pump but nothing
I will be looking to replace the oil pressure switch and also test the engine has oil pressure
any info or photos would be great
Thanks

It's as above in the diagram - item 16.

Follow the engine oil dip stick guide tube to the bottom. It's immediately behind and just above where the guide tube ends.

So how did you get yours out , looks very much a DPF removal just to do a simple job. No one tells you till you LOOK yourself.
