What is the Oil Pressure Sensor all about?

Oil is vital for your engine – you need enough oil to lubricate and reduce friction throughout the engine. There’s no way to visually determine how much oil is being pumped through your engine, so your car’s computer relies on the oil pressure sensor to determine the flow.The oil pressure sensor is a basic electrical switch that provides information to the instrument cluster’s oil pressure gauge with the accurate real-time pressure. When the pressure is too low, not enough oil is being pumped through the engine to lubricate and cool components. When pressure drops below a threshold set by the automaker, the engine oil light on the car’s dashboard illuminates, warning you that driving could be dangerous.

Keep in mind:

There is no way to visually determine the operating condition of your oil pressure sensor.
If the sensor fails, it is impossible to determine whether there is sufficient oil flow/pressure to lubricate and protect your engine.
If your oil pressure sensor fails, it should be replaced immediately.

How it's done:

The vehicle is raised and supported on jack stands and tire is removed
The defective oil pressure sensor is removed
The new oil pressure sensor is installed
The engine is started and oil pressure is checked then the vehicle is taken off the jack stands
The vehicle is road tested for proper operation

Our recommendation:

Your car’s oil pressure sensor is an electrical component, and can be subjected to a number of issues, including wiring damage. If you suspect damage to the sensor, or have noticed your oil light come on, have it inspected and diagnosed by one of our expert mechanics.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Oil Pressure Sensor?

Oil pressure light is on
Oil pressure light turns on and off (can indicate several potential problems)
Depending on your make and model, you may have an oil pressure gauge that displays pressure in PSI. Note any drops below normal operating pressure.

How important is this service?

It is absolutely vital that your engine oil pressure be constantly monitored for potentially dangerous conditions. If your oil pressure sensor isn’t working properly, it cannot do its job, and must be replaced. If your oil pressure light comes on, call one of our expert mechanics immediately (driving with the light on can potentially cause damage).

Saturn SC1 L4-1.9L - Power Steering Fluid Service - Kennesaw, Georgia

Michael was great. Prompt, friendly, up front. He kept me in the loop about what he was doing the whole time and got it done as quickly as possible. The difference in my car's performance was night and day, and I really appreciated his post-maintenance explanation of what I could do if anything went wrong again.

Saturn SC1 L4-1.9L - Car is not starting - Atlanta, Georgia

Robert Bell was extremely professional, quickly diagnosed, isolated & resolved the fault within the hour! Robert reassured me that my fuel pump pressure, all voltages and mechanics were within spec. Through fault management, Robert identified a intermittent / faulty TPS (Throttle Positioning Sensor) recently installed which "triggered" the "no start" on this vehicle & resolved w/o new parts. I would highly recommend Mr. Robert Bell and we are extremely thankful that yourmechanic.com exists - saved us additional / unnecessary costs! Thank you again to all the staff of Yourmechanic.com and your certified & knowledgeable mechanic, Mr. Robert Bell!!

Saturn SC1 L4-1.9L - Water Pump - Sacramento, California

My car was leaking coolant and making noise. I figured it was the water pump. I started looking for a a auto repair shop that could get me in asap and at a reasonable price . Came across Your Mechanic I filled out form for a quote I was shocked on how much cheaper your mechanic was to a shop. JEFF was my mechanic was on time was very nice and professional. I was very happy with JEFF and would recommend your mechanic to every one instead of a repair shop. Very happy and now I have a very good mechanic and his name is Jeff with Your mechanic. Thank You JEFF and Your Mechanic Helena Da veiga
