[RESOLVED] Can't figure out this oil filter area part! (light sender)

[slim2005]

I can't figure out what this part is near the oil filter housing. It has a wire that connects to it also. I haven't been able to find out anything on it.

Oil Pressure Sending Unit?

 

[Mr Peepers]

That is the oil pressure sending unit. It is for your stock oil pressure gauge.

Thats the oil pressure sending unit.

 

[MrBoxx]

Could it be your oil pressure sending unit?

 

[slim2005]

anyone got a part number??? i had part number MD133273 and it was the at the back of that and is huge so i know it's not that one.

this is the smaller one. The pressure sending unit was the one in the back and is very large

[Mr Peepers]

Oil pressure switch then, I'm sorry. It triggers the oil dummy light.

 

[TjPhillips36]

Maybe MD138993? Engine Oil Pressure Switch?

EDIT: ^^ Beat me to it...

 

[MrBoxx]

Make sure that wire that connects to it is on securely. They're known for slipping off very easily once they get a little oil on them, which triggers the red Oil light, or makes it flicker.

This picture is from a 1g engine in a 2g, but the sensor should be the same as yours.
