Jeep JK Oil Pressure Sensor FIX: Check Engine Code P0520

[@Spartan-hs8nn]

This is why I like older vehicles. Less stuff to take apart to get to what needs fixed.

[@JeepSolid]

Oh man! Big project for a little sensor. But can be done 👍

[@bretthibbs6083]

same here I have a 2000 wrangler and it's a piece of cake to work on and with my income I can only afford older vehicles anyways lol.

[@NYEK_GTR_]

Currently tackling this project in my garage. Was dreading doing this but here I am. Thanks to your video the confidence is there.

[@JeepSolid]

It’s not bad if you aren’t in a rush & keep organized

[@joelambert9500]

About to be doing this outside 😮‍💨 sad part is I've only had my jeep 60days 2015 model

[@NYEK_GTR_]

@@JeepSolid well the job is completed! No cel and no leaks. Thank you sir !

[@austinaubinoe2195]

This is a great video, its nice that you mention the little clips and describe what you are looking at all the way through. Just some thoughts for someone needing to do this that has a JK: -Replace the oil filter housing with the newest mopar part, the seals have been redesigned. no more figure 8 seals under the cooler $177 -You can reuse the knock sensors and temp sensor, but spend the money on the new mopar oil pressure sensor. -If your anywhere close to 100k miles, change the spark plugs now -Replace all of the intake o ring seals, they are cheap.

[@austinaubinoe2195]

Also, looks like oil pressure sensor part number changed for 2017/18 models.

[@mikenash5702]

94000 miles and mine just went out. I was just getting ready to change spark plugs. I guess I'm glad the sensor went out when it did.

[@Titanphoenix666]

Worst thing Chrysler did was ditch the straight 6

[@JeepSolid]

That was an amazing engine. I currently own 3 of them. 2 are running. Haha!

[@jasonmiller4046]

it was a better motor but it ate water pumps sucked gas and had no go

[@atmphil1]

It leaked oil like crazy

[@jbhk7977]

​@@jasonmiller4046 I'm driving 4.2 and 4.0 Jeeps (CJ,YJ,XJ and TJ) for over 36 years now and never had a water pump fail on me. Acceleration of the 4.2 and 4.0 is more than adequate. I can even use the 5th gear on the highway with a 3.07 gearing and 33' tires . . . as long as there's no incline. By the way, I would always pick the 3.8 over the 3.6 pentastar. The 2011 JK is the best choise (IMHO) we see the 3.6 back in the shop far more than the 3.8. Yes the 3.8 is a ;dog' for some. But it's a 4x4 not a race car.

[@jimdixon6688]

Great Video and example of an outstanding mechanic. Jeep sure had head up their rear-end when they put that sensor in that deep. I have replaced mine twice now in 100k miles and may have to replace it again. Appreciate your video

[@devindalton9650]

thank you. this made my install so much easier

[@SilentBob1932]

Good Video,I’m doing this for the second time now on my 2015 Grand Cherokee , first time was 4 years ago for the filter housing leaking, now I got the oil pressure sensor code. Since I have to take the intake off again, I’m going to replace the spark Plugs and coils too now that I got 125,000 miles on it.

[@gabrielrivera1915]

Excellent video, I’m dreading doing this

[@JeepSolid]

It’s not that bad. Leave yourself plenty of time, listen to some music or a game while working.

[@JonathanReyes-cr7tg]

Keep these up, you’re saving the lives of our wallets!

[@nopoohfan7112]

Convinced me not to get a JK haha. I will stick with my YJ.

[@JeepSolid]

Haha! Yep

[@markbarboza1407]

Great video, getting ready to do my 2012, should be a hoot...

[@Pete9999100]

Great video ! Thanks !

[@JuanDelacruz-vi6bo]

Thank very much for your video, It helps me a lot, God Bless You thanks.

[@roccom5988]

Exellent job my friend.

[@JeepSolid]

Thank you!

[@jjw6342]

If your going that deep in may as well replace your spark plugs. Have to take the upper intake off for the driver side plugs.

[@aschroer]

Outstanding! Thank you so much.

[@JB-wq2mk]

Are the knock sensors located below the entire oil cooler assembly? I have a check engine light come on for one of the knock sensors but if I have to remove that entire assembly to get to them I might just go ahead and replace the oil pressure sensor while I am at it

[@Noideawhatimdoing411]

Thanks Dale excellent video. Maybe a JKU should be the rebuild in the garage!!!!!!! Ben

[@JeepSolid]

Thanks Ben! Maybe a salvage jku

[@CAGraphics576]

Is this an opportunity to change the plugs??

[@smorrow0816]

Great video

[@garyvandeputte9590]

Use the camera on your cell phone instead of marking stuff. I would have replaced temp sensor as well. Good video very well done.

[@ralphjones7531]

i have to do this. ugh. im replacing both sensors. not doing that twice lol.

[@Chicken_Ryan]

what are the torque specs

[@brandonfulton3255]

Do you have a parts list? I’m about to do this job

[@LeviClaridge]

Thanks for a good video. I have to do this job. What are your thoughts replacing the oil cooler while in there just in case? As far as I know, mine isn't acting up.

[@JeepSolid]

Yeah, probably a good idea to replace the whole unit

[@granth6011]

Can I use these torque specs on my 2018 wrangler? I cant find a 2018 wrangler service manual to purchase - the only one I can find is the manual in the video but thats through 2017 models

[@thegnewman]

Myj jeep has this sensoring showing, but also the temp gauge is running hot. Could these sensors both be bad and causing these issues or is there possibly a correlation?

[@libertybell1199]

Could this also be from engine code PO523?

[@worldcup88]

Thank you for the video! How long did it take you?

[@JeepSolid]

I would estimate it’s a 3 hour job. Took me longer because I was filming.

[@taka-9038]

How long does this job take to do, not filming and teaching us?

[@JeepSolid]

I’d estimate around 2-4 hours.

[@hilmania7248]

Never getting rid of the 05.

[@charlesbrown6784]

Me either

[@GWD1069]

Thanks perfect video, I replaced my wife’s Jeep today.

[@bretthibbs6083]

I had to replace the oil pressure sensor on my tj a few years ago and I made the mistake of buying aftermarket and after I installed it it didn't work right so I had to install the old one til I was able to get a new mopar unit and it's been working great since. So if you think buying an aftermarket one is cheaper nope it's not buy mopar ones instead.

[@JeepSolid]

For sure. This is a part you don’t wanna go cheap on. What a pain to repeat the process 😫

[@jamesbaker1260]

Bend that bracket at a 90 degree n yes a sensor socket will go on I do 3 a month

[@wesstuff2751]

You lost me at disconnecting the battery Lol

[@redriverraider]

All that for two oil sensors! Good grief!

[@ethancash8760]

Howdy howdy

[@JeepSolid]

Hey there!

[@felixhofschneider3276]

I recently replaced the oil cooler housing and changed all the sensors a month later the oil pressure warning light keeps flashing pushing my engine into limp mode. What a piece of crap these parts are

[@JeepSolid]

That sucks. Where’d you get parts from?

[@felixhofschneider3276]

@@JeepSolid Amazon it’s an Omix brand. It’s a hard lesson learn now I’m getting ORM mopar parts. It may cause 2-3 times the cost of what I got but it will be worth it

[@Epicfunk]

Only fourteen minutes and twenty two seconds to do this? Ten hours later...

[@JeepSolid]

Haha! Yeah. It’s probably a 4-6 hour job, depending on your level of experience. But not a bad afternoon job while you drink a few and listen to a ball game 👍

[@scidav87]

The motor is a huge piece of TRASH that makes hardly any power to begin with

[@JeepSolid]

I guess that’s why they put it in Jeeps and Vans. Not sports cars

[@joelambert9500]

I hear it's supposed to be pretty strong and can push up to 420 ish torque on stock internals

[@no2thenwo737]

That's why they put this engine in the police cruisers. That makes sense now.

[@egodyla1]

Wtf...whos engenineering is this 🤮

[@JeepSolid]

🤣
