2. Check the continuity between the terminal and the body when the fine wire is pushed. If there is 

continuity even when the fine wire is pushed, replace the switch.  

3. If there is no continuity when a 50 kPa (7 psi) vacuum is applied through the oil hole, the switch is 

operating properly. 

Check for air leakage. If air leaks, the diaphragm is broken. Replace it.
