Good video. Helped me change mine on a 2012 MDX. I didn't bother removing the tire, I just turned it all the way to the right and crawled under there. Plenty of room to access it. Pinch the connector at the top and used an adjustable wrench to remove and replace. Easy repair, $45 for the part.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience. I will try it without removing the tire if I ever have to replace it again. Best of luck with your next DIY project and hopefully subscribe to big Al repairs.
@@MrSamPhoenix Great question. It has been running great and the light has not come back on. If you do switch it out make sure you get the part from an Acura dealer.
Quick and simple. My TL (2009-2012 gen) started intermittently showing the low oil warning. I checked the oil and it was a little low. I topped it off but the warning would flash every now and then. It’s been a week of this and I already bought the part and will be doing this job soon.
Sam. Thanks for your comment. I wish you the best on your project. Please give us an update when you finish. Thanks again and hopefully you will subscribe to Big Al Repairs.
@@BigAl-1 Hey, thanks for the reply. I changed the oil pressure switch. But now I’m getting code P2647, which something to do with a stuck Rocker Arm-A.
@@MrSamPhoenix Oh my! I hate when that happens. Best of luck with this new project. I’m not sure what you do to fix the new problem. Hop out is not too painful.
@@MrSamPhoenix try to remove the solenoid clean it and the filter in the gasket then put fresh oil and oil filter if it doesn't fix it you might need to replace the solenoid
Here's a silly question. Would connecting the two wires at the plug essentially trick the PCM into thinking that there was sufficient oil pressure/level? I know it would be best to just replace the sensor, but a shop had gotten a hold of it(when wife was taking care of it) and they "forced" an incorrect sensor into the block plug(stripping the plug where the correct and smaller sized sensor can no longer screw into it to seal oil). I imagine I can heli the damaged hole, and perhaps get an adapter for the correct oil pressure sensor, but this is an old vehicle never driven...just basically serving as a "fishing vehicle" to drive a short way to the lakes...and don't want to spend money on it..plus not much space to try to re-ring that sensor hole/plug behind the brakes....

Guys! This video is so helpful. I just got a used MDX 2009, and I discovered it pops that warning, was thinking I have to change the engine, until I saw this. Would give it a try first. I was told is CAD 245.
Nice, been trying to figure out how to replace the oil pressure switch for my NDX
It’s MDX silly

Great question. I bought the part at a local Acura Dealership.
