False positive

Fred graciously took me to pick up my Jetta today. On the way home, not far from the mechanic the oil pressure beeper went off. I hopped out, popped the hood and found the high pressure switch disconnected. This isn't a huge surprise, he'd been chasing an oil leak for me. I plugged in the plug that was hanging right there and headed out again.

Within 200 yards the beeper was back on again. This car has 2 oil pressure switches, a low pressure one and high pressure. The high pressure switch doesn't do anything until 2000 RPM. I headed back to the mechanic and as I was explaining what was wrong it occurred to me that what I'd plugged in was the wrong thing... We plugged in the correct plug and it was fine.


DOH!
