Title: Oil pressure sensor for the dashboard (name?)
Post by: jfrabat on November 06, 2022, 08:26:37 AM

Hi, guys.  Have not posted here in a LOOOOOOOOONG time!  But I still have the Jeep!

Anyway, anyone remember what the sensor for the oil pressure gauge is named?  Not the one that sends to the ECU, but the one that sends the pressure to the dash.

There isn't one that sends a signal to the ECU.  There's only one sender and it's next to the distributor.  Should have one wire going to it.  It's just called the Oil Pressure Sender.

It is a pain to get to, but if you are going to replace check your wiring and have a plan to replace the wire. I would clean the area around it and change when doing an oil change.

Great to see a post from you.   

I changed that sender once and it failed in just a few months.  I decided to just leave it that way.  It shows a pressure, not anything correct. But as long as there is pressure, it should be fine.
