Keep an eye on your oil level.  Sometimes the sensors go bad.

This is for the NN10824 oil pressure switch used on some of the Onan engines.

I don't know how we'd live without your input on the proper manuals for all things WH  - thank you so much for all your help .

Looks like the switch is NLA.

I don't know if it was ever available through Wheel Horse/Toro. It is an Onan part number and many manuals state they are recorded for reference only. They did the same with Kohler engine parts.

Perhaps Boomer will respond.

Here is an older thread where a replacement switch was needed but appears it only had one terminal.

I have a thread on this. They still make it. But it's expensive.

I was thinking of putting an oil pressure guage on a 520 and eliminating one of the existing guages that I rarely use like the vacuum guage.

 

It could be either electric or mechanical (I would likely just go electric).

 

I already have mine all wired so the hour meter is permanently grounded and run whenever the key switch is on (I would never have the key on and engine off).

 

However, if you want to stay all original, keep your eye on the classified sites, a pressure switch may turn up.

There are all kinds of automotive pressure switches available.  Surely one could be used to replace the OEM switch.  Would something like this work? Switch

That pressure  switch closes to make a complete  circuit  between 2 and 5 lbs. of oil pressure.

my 2016 L-835 price sheet shows the 309-0606 at the memphis warehouse

for 16.52.

most cummins dealers will charge 20% more than that price.
