Description
Overview:
This Engine Stop Switch (Oil Alert) is a genuine Honda OEM safety component for the Honda GX series, including GX240 and GX390 engines. It uses a robust metal, threaded body with an insulated electrical terminal to monitor sump oil level. When oil drops below the safe threshold, the switch signals the ignition to shut down the engine, helping to prevent seizure and costly internal damage. Designed for petrol-powered construction and garden machinery built around Honda GX engines, it is a direct-fit replacement that restores correct low-oil protection. Built to Honda standards for durability and reliability, it is suitable for site equipment, workshop use, and regular maintenance schedules where consistent performance and protection are required.
Key Features:
- Genuine Honda OEM part for assured fit and function on specified GX engines
- Integrated Oil Alert function automatically stops the engine when oil is low
- Direct replacement for 15520-ZE2-003 with no modifications required
- Durable metal body with sealed construction to resist oil, heat, and vibration
- Simple electrical hookup via a single-wire connection to the ignition circuit
- Helps prevent engine damage caused by running with insufficient lubrication
- Quick to fit in the crankcase port; suitable for workshop or on-site maintenance
- Stable performance across common operating temperatures and duty cycles
- Supports safe operation for hire fleets and daily-use machinery
- Backed by Honda's quality manufacturing for long service life
Typical Applications:
Used on Honda GX-powered equipment such as generators, plate compactors, water pumps, pressure washers, cement mixers, tillers, and other site or agricultural machinery. Ideal for commercial, DIY, and fleet maintenance where automatic low-oil shutdown is required to protect engines under continuous or intermittent loads.
