[@laragreene8328]

Looks like depending on the year of Jeep some are harder to get to...or either your video is just better.

[@brynjaminjones]

I love how I can hear 4.0s driving around in the background at various points. Either that or I'm imagining things...

[@dedowd9335]

I have a FJ-40 with the same problem. This video will help me out. Thanks.

Hi Jason, youre a great addidtion to BleepinJeep! Are you still going to run HoJ? Hope to see more of these maintance/repair videos as Matt is probably not going to do anything like that until hes finished with his crawler.

[@PrimitiveOverland]

There was a guy that is a crooked mechanic and i braught my jeep in to his shop about a battery terminal. While he was giving me a hand he reached down and broke this sensor. I saw his hand go down that way i just figured he was checking something. I soon lost all my oil and im shure he was expecting me to come back with a ruined engine. Well i changed the sensor but now the dash oil pressure gage is not working. Any idea why? Please comment if you yhink uou can help

[@thedarklordchinchin4873]

Thanks I thought I had to by pass something but it was simple

[@IntelligentDesigned]

mine was leaking and it was broken so now the side with that goes to the block is broken on the block, went and got a bolt removal tool and broke in there too. any ideas would be amazing!!

[@miniprepper]

HAROLD De La Matta what did you ultimately do?

[@littlechief2617]

Can you still drive it like that with the oil pressure running High

[@fredbroom5050]

Yes, as long as it isn't leaking oil.

[@flurrymcflurr9305]

Hi there. Can you tell me what causes the sensor to malfunction? I have a vauxhall combo diesel van, only done 26,000 miles and my oil light is flashing all the time, from startup. Thankyou.

[@ethanblend]

Hey thanks for the instructions , how much it needs to be tightened?

[@bleepinjeep]

Just enough that oil won't blow out

[@kielord2133]

I always go just tight and a quarter turn 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@jgsb111]

Is that thread tape on the new units threads?

[@bagelbytes69420]

appears to be liquid Teflon pre applied to make a better seal.

[@jgsb111]

+BagelBytes Yea I figured it was something like that. Just wanted to make sure!

[@Artkidtek]

I can see mine hanging underneath my car. It isnt plugged in. When I took a closer look the metal connector at the end of the harness is broken...

[@skie6282]

Try plugging it in and unplugging it

[@Artkidtek]

Erskine Lothrop I cant I need a new plug first. The metal part at the tip of the wire is broken

[@dylanreynolds4899]

recently did this change and when I cranked up the xj I have lost all of my gauges...even the odometer. Is this normal or did I do something to cause this

[@gamemaster2618]

Check abs pump. Caused to lose odometer or check your abs cables to the wheels becuase they measure speed

[@thomascanady7597]

I could tell mine was going bad when the gauge was 0 and looked at the sensor just hanging down there

[@onlylexus]

Can you tell me where the oil pressure sensor is located on a 2007 Chrysler grand voyager 2.8 auto, I want to take it out to do an oil pressure test, but I just can see it, its a very closed off engine. Thank you.

[@MrMrsregor]

+Paul Manning wrong channel, this is about bleep'n jeeps

[@canadapainter658]

do I need to drain the oil to change the sensor? I got a Ford Tempo V6..

[@looperx9541]

canada painter no, but new oil never hurts the car

[@FreestylekingTKO211]

Should I go ahead and get a oil change since I got the sensor replaced

[@Durfadorfano]

Yea, Mine pegs itself at 80 every so often.

[@huntguy3831]

It must suck to do a oil change on that thing.

[@Dorian451]

it's actually pretty easy because it's so high of the ground

[@huntguy3831]

Dorian Sonneman Yea but I was saying that because as soon as you take off the filter oil is going to go everywhere.

[@Ponykeg53]

If your only gonna work on jeeps you put that in you title
