oil pressure switch (sending unit) location on 2000 Ford ranger 2.5l

[@Good2go6894]

With the price of gas these day, I decided to start driving my 1999 ranger 2.5l again. It only has 93000 miles but I noticed the oil sending unit was working. I bought a new one but was not sure where it was located. Great video for the DIY ers. Thanks for sharing.

I didn't know where it was thank you this was very helpful👍👍👍

Thank you!

Perfect, I'm needing to do this myself. My gauge keeps flicking off and on.

John Klatt yeah replacing should cure that. pretty cheap at the store and easy job overall

I'm assuming yes but mine's a manual and the gauge just drops when/during shifting sometimes. Is this the early signs of the same issue? Also, would removing the wheel improve access even more or not necessary? normally i don't do more than change my oil but this looks fairly straight forward. those who've done it think so?

Thank you, Sir. I've been looking for that. Do you know if it's the same location for a 2001?

[@Usmanthemecano]

A switch and sending unit are two different things!!
