    Yeah, the connector on the oil pressure sender. Fwiw and to newbie Nick... that's the sensor located on the oil filter adapter. Not the one on the front of the pan.

    (Newbie Nick...you know you laughed)
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Well..it's not super easy. You actually have to crawl under or pull the passenger wheel.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    if your oil pressure truly is low then you are going to have motor issues coming up real soon. hoping for you that it's the sensor.

    Well, guys I used one of my dads car lifts in his shop and checked the sensor, which was not wet, the seal is good, so tomorrow i am hooking up the oil pressure gauge and guess just watch the pressure, which should be around 60 psi at 1850 rpms right?? My dad has that all data thing for his business and thats what it said, at operating temperature.

    So i guess i will just have to wait and see when the motor will let go. gonna be a sad day when it does thoo

    Not being wet doesn't mean it's not bad. Likely....the motor is good and the sensor is bad.
