V-Twin Mfg. Oil Pressure Sensor Switch For Harley Twin Cam 1999-2017

V-Twin Mfg. Oil Pressure Sensor Switch: Essential Protection for 1999–2017 Twin Cam Engines

Protect your engine’s vitals with the V-Twin Mfg. Oil Pressure Sensor Switch. Specifically engineered for the 1999–2017 Harley-Davidson Twin Cam powertrain, this switch is the primary line of defense against oiling system failure. A failing or leaking sensor can lead to false “low oil” warnings or, even worse, a failure to alert the rider when pressure actually drops. This high-quality replacement ensures that your dash indicator light provides accurate information, protecting your Twin Cam 88, 96, 103, or 110 from the severe internal damage caused by oil starvation. It is a fundamental Harley-Davidson maintenance component for every Bagger, Softail, and Dyna owner.

Reliable Mechanical Sensing Technology

The V-Twin Mfg. oil pressure switch utilizes a precision-calibrated internal diaphragm to monitor the pressure within your engine’s oil galleries. Designed to meet or exceed original equipment specifications, this sensor is built to handle the high-vibration environment of the V-Twin performance engine. When oil pressure falls below the safe threshold, the switch closes the electrical circuit to illuminate the warning light on your dash. Its robust construction is designed to resist the thermal cycling and chemical exposure typical of a high-performance Harley-Davidson powertrain, ensuring long-term chassis reliability.

Direct Replacement for OEM #26561-99

Compatibility is critical when it comes to Harley-Davidson electronics and sensors. This unit is an exact “plug-and-play” replacement for OEM part number 26561-99 (and subsequent revisions). It features the correct thread pitch for the oil filter mount housing and the factory-standard electrical spade or clip connector, ensuring a fast and secure installation. Replacing a leaking or faulty sensor is a common Stage 1 chassis repair that prevents oil from seeping into your wiring harness or onto your engine cases, keeping your machine clean and mechanically sound.

Comprehensive Twin Cam Fitment (1999–2017)

This sensor is designed for the standardized oiling systems found on nearly two decades of Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Confirmed fitment includes:

• Touring Series: Road King, Street Glide, Road Glide, and Electra Glide (1999–2016).

The V-Twin Mfg. Quality Standard

For over 40 years, V-Twin Mfg. has been a trusted leader in the aftermarket Harley parts industry. They specialize in creating components that provide an “original equipment” look and feel while offering modern durability. Every oil pressure sensor undergoes rigorous quality control testing to ensure accurate pressure switching and a leak-free seal. By choosing V-Twin Mfg., you are investing in V-Twin expertise that keeps your motorcycle’s secondary systems functioning exactly as the factory intended.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

Installing the V-Twin Mfg. sensor switch is a straightforward task typically performed during a standard Harley-Davidson service. We recommend using a dedicated oil pressure switch socket to avoid damaging the plastic housing during removal and installation. Apply a small amount of thread sealant (if not pre-applied) to ensure a watertight seal against the engine case. This is also an ideal time to perform an oil and filter change to ensure your engine’s internal lubrication is at its peak. Regularly check the sensor area for oil “sweating,” which can indicate it’s time for a replacement.
