Title: pressure switch Post by: jerryz on November 20, 2010, 08:33:04 AM The pressure switch on my S4 has sheared at the bolt ,damn thing was only hand tight when it bust , I have temporary fitted an old spark plug in the hole as its same thread so i can use the bike , seems Ducati Thailand dont stock it so i will order one from UK which will take a month to get here if not stolen in the post but are there any cars that use it so i might try some local parts store GM, FIAT etc or the generic make of the switch ..also i may try repair with steel epoxy but not holding my breath

IIRC the same switch is used on some Fiats. The "Alternatives to expensive Ducati parts" thread here: http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=698.0 (http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=698.0) May have the info.
