The sensor is in fact on the backside of the oil cooler and will require removal of the upper and lower intake manifolds. Was is super low on oil to your knowledge?

It was lower than normal. Yes.

It was lower than normal. Yes.

Super low oil could have set off the low oil pressure code and CEL. Ask me how I know lol

Let’s hope that’s all it was (low oil and dirty oil). I really don’t want to spend the time replacing the sensor.

Thanks for the feedback.

So after a Month of waiting to fix my CEL for my oil pressure switch, I finally was able to fix it. Ended up switching out the complete assembly with the oil cooler and oil filter.



On a previous post I was planning on jumping to 37s due to a good deal on 37s and get a new front axle on the near future. I decided against this, as I want to do it right. I decided to go with 35s this time around again. And over the next year or two, replace the front axle, regear/lock the rear, and get the tires and wheels I want last. When I make the jump, I also want my suspension to be ready for anything. So I will be going coil overs and long arms also.

So last weekend, we had planned on a Gulches trip to stretch the legs on my rig. Along with seeing what the Jeep can accomplish before I lock the rear and slap in a 44 with a locker up front. But last weekend, scheduling didn’t work out for me to make the trip. So we postponed until this weekend, come to find out, it’s going to be closed due to rain. Eventually I’ll make it to Gulches, lol. But as it looks this weekend, I’ll be getting the Jeep dirty on some local trails.
I am also curious how my new tires will handle in the mud and dirt.
