Oil Pressure Sender

Well today i was going down the road in my girlfriends jeep and noticed her oil light stayed on. So i made her pull over and checked it twice at that. It isnt low and i just changed it a few days ago. So i think it is the pressure sending unit and i need to know where it is and a part number would be great. I think it is somewhere near the filter but if someone could please tell me for sure and make my day alot easier. Aslo as you can tell i am a CRD guy working on a V-6 gasser so i am out of my element :wink:

its above the oil filter. you need to unhook the electrical piece and then take it off. i dont know HOW to take it off because it is on there pretty darn good. taking the oil filter off will help a lot tho

I will have a look at it tonight when i get home and do a wirte up on how i got it off and the location. It just sucks though because i just changed the oil :furious:

and if i have to remove the filter :furious:

knew i should of fixed that before i changed the oil.

This has been brought up before and as I recall the sender is a common one avalable at Advanced or Autozone.
Here's a link to what I found at AutoZone.

I think it's just over an inch, like an inch and 1/16th. And if your my size you can barely get to the filter from underneath the jeep, so getting to the switch is not happening. ( I'm thinking there should be , "Jeep Liberty Filter change Pose." for yoga. ) I changed mine by quickly removing the battery, under hood fuse block and battery tray. Much, much more room this way. Had to use my wife's hand mirror to make sure I was undoing the clip correctly. I also took the serpentine belt off to allow room for a universal joint, extension, and then my ratchet fit in between fan and pump. Nothing like Chrysler cramming that stuff in there alltogether. What ever happened to working on a v-8 with so much room in the engine bay you can sit on the inner fenders and work on the motor?

Careful when you put the new one on. Don't torque it down to tight or you may damage it. Just nice and snug is good.

Yes it is an inch and a 1/16 deep socket. Serp belt off can help also. Done my sensor twice. Napa also carries them.
