Factory Oil Pressure Sender Location

[jdmawd]

OK i know its mounted to the oil filter housing, but there are what looks like 2 senders on the oil filter housing. One on the rear with a screw head, and one on the front just under the oil filter with a terminal for a connector. The reason why I ask, is because there are 2 wires that are not connected right in that area, and my dash oil pressure gauge is not working.

umm the connector one i believe is the oil light the screw in is the sender

Damn, the stinking manual makes on references to the oil filter housing. Or the sending units at all, the only place its even shown is in the engine rebuild section

Heh, I'm not sure if this is the wire you're looking for, but on the oil filter housing. There's like... a bell shaped thing sorta that points toward the rear of the car, and a knob that comes off of that. One of the wires slips sideways onto this knob, and just sorta friction sits there (mine fell off, scared the poop outta me, my pressure gauge dropped to zero)

If it won't stay on, I just sorta bent the connector so it hugs the knob, and it stays now.
