<h3>About VDO: A Legacy of Precision Automotive Instrumentation</h3><p>Few names carry as much weight in automotive instrumentation as <strong>VDO</strong>. Founded in 1929 and headquartered in Villingen-Schwenningen, Germany, VDO has spent nearly a century engineering precision measurement and sensing solutions for the global automotive industry. Today, VDO operates as a trademark of the <strong>Continental Corporation</strong>, one of the world's largest automotive technology suppliers, bringing the resources and R&amp;D depth of a global leader to every product in its lineup.</p><p>VDO's philosophy is grounded in three core values: safety, quality, and sustainability. Rather than treating these as marketing language, VDO embeds them into its engineering process — combining decades of manufacturing tradition with a forward-looking approach to vehicle technology. The result is a catalog of components trusted by OEM manufacturers and independent repair shops alike.</p><h3>What VDO Makes</h3><p>VDO's product portfolio spans both passenger cars and commercial vehicles, covering everything from climate control blower systems and fuel supply components to engine management sensors and vehicle diagnostics. The brand is particularly well regarded for two areas that enthusiasts and technicians rely on every day: precision <a href="/735-vdo-gauges-gauges-202044">gauges</a> and engine management sensors like the <a href="/735-vdo-gauges-mass-air-flow-sensor-5128">mass air flow sensor</a>.</p><p>VDO's <a href="/735-vdo-gauges-gauges-202044">gauge instruments</a> are among the most recognized in motorsport and street performance alike. From oil pressure and water temperature to voltmeters and fuel level gauges, VDO instruments are known for their clean styling, reliable internals, and accurate readings. Many builders choose VDO gauges not just for function, but because their analog aesthetics have become iconic in cockpit design.</p><p>On the engine management side, VDO's <a href="/735-vdo-gauges-mass-air-flow-sensor-5128">mass air flow sensors</a> reflect the brand's OEM heritage. Because VDO is a Continental company, its MAF sensors are engineered to meet or exceed original factory specifications — making them a go-to choice for technicians who want a direct-fit replacement without sacrificing the accuracy modern engine management systems demand.</p><h3>OEM Heritage, Aftermarket Availability</h3><p>One of VDO's most compelling qualities is that many of its aftermarket parts are manufactured to the same tolerances as the components originally installed on the assembly line. This OEM-grade quality standard means fewer comebacks in the shop and greater confidence for the DIY mechanic. VDO also supports its product line with service tools and vehicle diagnostics solutions, making it a comprehensive partner for professional technicians.</p><p>Whether you're building a custom instrument cluster, restoring a vintage European vehicle, or replacing a failed sensor on a daily driver, VDO's combination of engineering heritage and Continental-backed quality makes it a brand worth trusting under the hood and on the dashboard.</p>

Product Details

The VDO 226-635 is a precision reed switch fuel level sender designed for accurate fuel level monitoring in marine, automotive, and industrial applications. This 350mm (13.78-inch) sender unit utilizes advanced reed switch technology to provide reliable resistance-based fuel level readings.

Key Features:

  • Reed switch technology for reliable, long-lasting performance
  • 350mm (13.78 inches) sender length for deep tank applications
  • 240-33 Ohm resistance range compatible with VDO fuel gauges
  • Durable construction for harsh environments
  • Direct replacement for original VDO senders
  • Accurate fuel level sensing throughout the resistance curve

This sender is engineered to work seamlessly with VDO fuel gauges that operate on the 240-33 Ohm resistance scale. The reed switch design eliminates the sliding contact points found in traditional rheostat-style senders, reducing wear and providing consistent readings over the sender's service life. The 350mm length makes this unit ideal for deeper fuel tanks commonly found in boats, RVs, and commercial vehicles.

Would be 5 star if package wasn't bent in shipping. However customer service and refund were prompt and courteous. Will recommend and shop with them again.
