I used this video to help me replace the oil pressure sensor on a Jeep Wrangler. I’m an experienced diy mechanic and this video is very well done. The step by step narration is clear and the gloved hand gestures are a nice touch. This sensor would be impossible to find if not for a good guide like this. Well done!
Wow! Many thanks for that awesome comment Nicholas. The feedback is appreciated. Make sure to subscribe and check out my other videos as well when you get time.
My wife wonders why I enjoy watching mechanic video's. I told her that if she ever watched someone that knows what he's doing, it's a joy to watch a procedure that some day I might just want to help someone attempt. Another great video.
This code popped up the other day. Didn't really want to take it to the garage so after watching your video felt confident enough to do it. Your video was 100% spot on and walked me through it. Thank you.
I have been meticulously watching this and part two for the past week. This is my very first time removing major components from my engine, so it's definitely scary. My good friend who is very knowledgeable with cars found this video for me. He told me that I was fully capable of doing this. I've gone out to different tool stores and auto stores for all the parts, and I'm finally ready. Will post my success story, haha. Thanks for all of the instructions. Your videos have been truly helpful. I am a visual learner, so I appreciate the way you have been showing us each step. The camera angles have been great. Mechanics like you are a blessing to the world. Not many people take time out of their jobs to help others with their talents and skills. Again. Thank you.
Its always great to hear feedback such as yours. Glad that I could show the repair and that everything that I was wanting to come across did in the video. I feel knowledge is meant to be shared so I am tying to do my part. Thanks again for the awesome comment.
Awesome! You shouldnt have to do it again. Glad that it all went well and you learned more about your vehicle. Thanks for the update and for using the video to do the repair.
Im sure they never intended for it to fail.....the oil temp sensor right next to it never goes bad. If its in an easy to get to place like on top the engine....for some reason it never goes bad.....crazy how that works lol. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic Hey, thanks for the reply.. I have an issue with mine right now. Do you think I should just order the whole filter replacement or do you think just replace the sensor and call it a day? tinyurl.com/yxydo9r3
Replaced my Oil psi sensor and Gaskets on 2012 chrysler 300 video is very detailed... followed every instructions and torque specifications. It will cost me $300+ to get it fixed on the shop. So i just bought my own tools spend about $150 for everything plus the parts. And follow step by step from these video takes me about 2+ hours. when i have visual of the old oil psi sensor, its just like i found a chest of gold under the ocean I've been looking for. After i replaced the sensor i did the gaskets and just so excited when i put everything back. But After my instalation and everything the engine light is still on.. drive them for 2 days hopless .. I made an appointment for the repair shop and today im about to bring it to the repair Shop.. then came to my mind to double check the things i put back and tightened all the hoses and TADa!! Engine light is gone.. i think my pcv hose is a lil loss when i put everything back. Or some other eles ... but anyways i feel so relieved. I just spent half of the spending for the repairs plus i got a tools of my own now.. thank you so much.. Video is soo helpful.. its just like cooking while reading a cook book. Well deatiled.. Thank you so much sir!! 😊👍
Hey you do know this video is about removing and replacing the entire oil filter/oil cooling unit which you can get in the original stock plastic with the sensors included ? That pentastar engine is in all Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep and I have pullen them from Audis . I worked as an engine disassemble rat Pull-A- Part (25 engines a day). The flaw and why these fail is the Plastic unit is sitting on the hot engine block and in time either the gasket for the oil or water will fail contaminating the fluids and when someone pulls their stick the first thing they think of is blown head gasket and if the engine oil gets too much water in it the steam will carry oil pass the rings and it will settle on top of the pistons and start altering the performance of the rings scarring the liners and if left to sit for two days will have corrosion in the cylinders. So you can upgrade it to the Aluminum replacement. Stay away from Autozone, Advanced and O’Rieley’s they say $317 , but I found it in various level of assembly and fully assembled with everything einstallend chiller, filter housing, oil filter, oil pressure sensor, oil temperature sensor upper and lower intake manifold gaskets all lower seal gaskets and all new E8 BOLTS. Do not try to use a 1/4 in socket on these security bolts they will strip. I got the entire assembly with all gaskets for $70 on Amazon. Now being All aluminum I can upgrade to the Elderbrock supercharger for the 3.6L pentastar they make one for each pentastar and Hemi Engine. Sadly these cost $7,000 but you can get one. And rebuild it yourself if you know how to tighten. Before I caught Covid I pulled 3 they all blow a piece out the bottom which ricochet and gets drawn between the rotor which locks the pulley and burns the belt and choke the engine out because the burnt belt smoke and oil spray if the shrapnel punctures the oil cooler beneath it.
This is the best instructional video I've ever seen! And as I like to do stuff myself (or attempt to), I watch videos on instruction a lot. I am definitely going to subscribe and look forward to more videos. I know the question was asked about a P06DD code so I hope that can be posted as that is my current issue with my 2011 3.6L Charger. Thanks so much.
Many thanks for the kind words. Its always great to hear from viewers like yourself. Thanks for having subscribed. On the code P06DD....the most common cause is the oil pump. In the future I am planning on doing a video on this repair.
This takes roughly 2 hours on a 2014 Grand Cherokee. I found it easier to loosen the intake brackets on the drivers side rather than the one on the passenger side. I also left the injector connectors and fuel lines attached to the lower intake and kept it out of the way with zipties attached to the wiper arm during sensor replacement. Manifold bolts are 8mm, manifold nuts are 10mm, bracket nuts and bolts are 13mm, and the sensor is 27mm.
Your an excellent mechanic. I just watched a video where the guy replaced his oil pressure sensor on a ram 3.6 by removing wipers and plastic flang and bracing brackets and did not take the manifold off
Thank you very much for the video. Replaced the sensor due to a P0520 code and did the spark plugs and ignition coil boots while I was at it. The shorter engine oil socket is the way to go. Very tight space when using the long one. The bracket that mounts the throttle body to the block was by far the worst part!
Excellent video, great instructions to detail. Tried the backyard idea spent 6 hours laying in top of engine trying to remove sensor from behind and under valve cover, a big waste of time. Wouldn't work put everything back together will do it your way Thanks
I agree with sdd1842. The instruction in this video is excellent! Just- What am I doing? why am I doing it? here's how. No lectures on tool safety or personal interjection on the right or wrong way to do something. Excellent video, definitely subscribing and hope you have covered the Ford F150. cheers!
I replaced the oil pressure sensor with one from Amazon and got a different code. I replaced it with a Standard USA sensor the same code came back. I used a Mopar sensor that I got from the dodge dealer and all the codes went away. I suggest using a factory dealership sensor only.
Hey bud great videos. Thanks and keep ‘‘em coming. Question 13 wrangler.p06dd . changed filter. Voltages is moving up n down. Solenoid switching off/on. What would you do. Daughters Jeep. Code not coming back. I’m gonna monitor with my Autel for a few days???.

Love your videos. Thank you so much for taking the time out to teach guys like me. I know it’s been asked and I’ve asked but I am hopefully awaiting that video about the oil pump replacement on the 3.6L. Thanks again!
I do need to get off my rear and do that video. I have everything in place to make it happen except for the time. I will certainly try some time soon to do this repair. Look for it to be multiple parts and also I plan on doing a "by the book" version and then the "shortcut" version so people can choose which they prefer. Thank again for asking.
Very educational and much appreciated. But can you tell me, in regards to that horrible oil filter housing cooling unit, were exactly do they fail? I've seen much on the internet that its poorly designed, frequently replaced, etc. But no-one says where these things fail. I've replaced of already last month and now a month later the vehicle is leaking from the same pace AGAIN. I'll be returning the part to the dealer under warranty.
Some say its the o-ring seals on the bottom, I feel some of it is where the halves join. Its hard to say exactly because you can only narrow it down so far due to where it is and what can and cant be seen while bolted in place. Thanks for asking Ian and make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic Done. Subscribed. Thanks for reply. I wish I had happier things to say but needing to do this job again to address another part failure prevents me. Will you tell me please if the torque specs you give for the dodge charger (cooling unit, upper & lower intakes) the same as for a '14 dodge grand caravan sxt 30th anniversary edition with a v6 3.6l vvt engine? I'd really appreciate it. I hate hunting down specific torque specs from non- specialists. Thank you.
@@MotorCityMechanic ☺Awesome. Thanks for the peace of mind. And just fyi, I don't mind getting my hands dirty, I just hate rework due to crappy designs.
A friend was working on my vehicle I just had open heart surgery so I cant work on things yet. In short when he was bolting the upper intake manifold onto the lower manifold he broke a bolt. It is difficult getting a bolt ordered. Is there and alternative bolt that can be used to bolt upper down to the lower. Thanks in advance.
I just got a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee laredo 3.6l as well. The engine light came on one day after purchasing from a ford dealership(no warranty), and I got the code P06DD, Says its duel stage oil pump & oil pressure sensor. The oil dipstick looks clean and is in the safe area. On my dashboard it still shows me a number on my oil pressure. So not sure exactly what piece is throwing it off. Filter possibly?
Took me an hour to change but.... sensor wasn't flushed to the engine.. so far no leaks no check engine light and oil pressure seems normal.. any advice?
On that engine is next to the alternator on the front of the engine. Removing the alternator is recommended inorder to get to it. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
I had the same error code P0520 0r P0522, i replace the oil pressure that came with the two sensor and the code is still there. I tried to reset it still nothing. i went back to autozome for the check engine light. same popped up. need help.
Great video. Your video helped me to change the oil pressure sensor on our Caravan but the friggen code comes on every month or so. The boys at the dealer said they usually put an oil pump in when they run into that situation but it's one of those crazy things that you never know it's fixed. We have our own auto shop and I don't mind putting in a oil pump if it's going to solve the issue. Anyway I subbed to your channel months ago and glad I did. Keep em coming. All the best to you in 2017.
I have had to replace one oil pump as well after trying different things to get rid of that common code. Its not the easiest thing to have to replace but sometimes its needed. Thanks for watching Paul. Appreciate the feedback as well.
Thanks David. Man you'd think if it was an oil pump it would trigger that code more frequent than every two months. Once I clear it it's out for another month or two. Oil pump in the oil pan? Remove exhaust and pull the pan down? Thanks for you help buddy👍
Its a crazy yet cool design. Its variable. I have that one oil pump in my shop torn down and was at some point going do a brief video about the way it functions. You have to remove both portions of the oil pan....the stamped steel and the aluminum piece along with the hard to remove exhaust section. Its chanin driven but the front cover doesnt need to be removed. There is an electrical connector that goes out the right side of the block that can be fun as well.
Thats one of those videos that takes alot of time and the issue is waiting for one to come in for that. I will certainly put it on my list of videos to make.
Possible causes are wiring, sensor, or PCM. Make sure no issues with the oil filter and no missing bypass valve. If okay then I would move to replacing the oil pressure sensor. Thanks for asking and for watching, Make sure to subscribe and Merry Christmas Steve.
excellent videos friend, I hope you can help me, I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.6-liter engine that turns on the code p06dd, What can I do to solve that code Greetings from Mexico thanks.
Morning, on that vehicle your most likely going to need an oil pump assembly replaced. Each time I have seen that code....the pump was what fixed it. That will require dropping the aluminum oil pump to get to it. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic Thank you very much friend, I will take it into account and as soon as possible to change the oil pump since the check engine sometimes turns on and sometimes it turns off and when it reaches 3000 revolutions it stops in the truck But I imagine it is so same Thank you very much.
Your videos are great. Thank you. I have a 2012 Chrysler 300 3.6L. At 75,000 miles Chrysler dealerships diagnosed P066D as Oil Sending Unit and replaced for $400. Now at 82,000 getting the same fault. At time of service I was informed that if code reappears Oil Pump will have to be replaced. No adverse performance to the vehicle that I can tell. What would you recommend?
Yeah it looks like the oil pump assembly will be needed. The times that I have gotten that code the pump was what fixed it. I plan to do that repair soon and film it on the 3.6 that I recently purchased just for filming. But I feel thats the path you need to go down next. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Make sure to subscribe and have a great weekend
Brian Ford : Did you have to get yours replaced? I’m in the same boat as you and have been putting it off since it doesn’t seem to affect oil pressure or any sort of performance. Thanks and hope your issues have been resolved!
Great video - Question - Is the sending unit socket you use in this video equivalent to the Lisle 13200? If not what size is required (diam and length)?
Love your work! Excellent video. Please confirm if this is the same engine configuration as my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo WK2 3.6L? I need to replace my engine oil pressure sensor as it logged a code and put the MIL check engine light on last week. However, the MIL light has now gone off?
I have this random rubber hose that has a plug that I can’t find anywhere in this video, it looks like it’s plugged into the transmission and the plug says BMC 4 anyone know where it goes ? It’s next to my oil cap???
I replace the oil pressure sensor on my Dodge Charger RT yesterday and today I feel a slight vibration could the oil pressure sensor cause that or is it just a coincidence it has a vibration in low RPMs I did replace the drive shaft coupler last year so it's not.
The oil pressure sensor wouldnt have any affect on that issue. There is something else happening not related to it. It would take some checking and there is no one thing I can point you towards. Thanks for the question and for watching the video. Make sure to subscribe
MotorCity Mechanic sorry to bother you again bro ham but would unplugging the battery mess up the MDS system because it only vibrates when the four cylinders is on when I'm in autostick it's fine or maybe the motor mounts went it started vibrate out of nowhere one day it was fine did a new battery took off the belt and senser and now this
Ive had my 2013 300 throw that code for about a week now. Would it cause huge major trouble if i wait another week to change that sensor? I do need to drive during that week to go to work and all
I feel it will be okay. Its a common issue and electrical, not mechanical. Just make sure you dont hear any engine noise while your waiting to replace the sensor. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe
Is the back bracket supposed to come all the way off? I just changed my spark plugs yesterday and I couldn't remove the plastic part of the screw I was worried I'd break it but I'm going to do it again to change the oil pressure censor
You have two options....leave it on and if the issue is fixed.....eventually it will go off by itself. It might take a few days or a week unless that didnt fix the issue. The other option is to have the codes cleared......your local auto parts stored can take care of that for you. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe
Wow he said it right there is no short cuts. Everybody else avoiding all these parts being taken off. Oh my so many parts gotta be disturbed. I see why nobody want to do the job. He doin great job tho
First off great videos and a great resource for us DIY'ers, and a big thank you! I recently replaced the oil pressure sensor due to a P0520 code on a 2012 jeep wrangler that fixed the issue for about a week, but now i get a P06dd code, but no p0520. What would you suggest next? Oil pump assembly or could i have made a mistake during reassembly? Thanks again!
The sensor is cut and dry when replacing so I dont think you caused any damage. The code P06DD will most likely be the oil pump for sure. Its a common item that causes that code each time I check. I plan on making a video on that repair in the future....got the engine to do it on sitting on a stand....just havent gotten to filming it yet. Thanks for watching and for the question.
hate to bother, but I'm ready to replace oil pump and not finding many guides for the jeep or any pentastar for that matter. Your guides are so solid, i was hoping you might be close to releasing one. Any update by chance or any resources you can recommend? Thanks again for the stellar videos!
Hey brother, looking for P113E and P113D code fix for my 15 300S 3.6 AWD. Just happened right after my Supercharger install w/new PCM and im thinking that it and the original O2 sensors arent communicating effectively.? Love all your videos bro!
Thank you for the Video. I have questions, I changed pressure oil sensor today. the problem I have is after I start the engine sound very lowed. pleaser advise what could be the problem.
Thank You David for the quick response. The code was P0520... I find the issue, the loud noise was from the back of the intake hose was loose not connected.
Here is the link to the video that will help you the mosts....its very similar to your vehicle....you just need to remove the airbox to get access to it. ruclips.net/video/5H0Sjp3AcAc/видео.html
@@shaddpastored2056 thanks so much I think I have tracked mine down to oil temp sensor have one ordered as soon as replaced I will tell u how it went I noticed would read > 104 dead cold then after temp reached 158 it would read could reset light and stay off the whole time until cooled back down
kool freaking video... i just changed mine out but the check engine light is still on. i tryed erasing the code with my scanner but it doesn't even come off
The tests for the code states possible causes being sensor or PCM. If need be....do a manual power down to see if the code can be cleared that way incase the scanner is part of the issue with clearing the code. Here is the link that explains it: ruclips.net/video/5LlzvDaaiLQ/видео.html
The is no specific ohm reading given in the test. A wiring issue could be possible. It would require ohming the wires from the PCM to the sensor connector to be sure.
On that engine the oil pressure is all over the place and not a set number. It has variable valve timing and a pump that can change output/pressure so its always changing depending on the driving your doing and the mode its in. What issues are you having and any codes?
On the 300c (5.7 hemi) its located on the front of the engine next to the alternator. its kind of hidden, unbolting the alternator makes it easier to get to. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
@@dexterwilliams4130 It should be the same design....it does have a secondary lock however that need to be slid to the side. The connector may be green in color and the secondary lock being white depending on the year.
The RT is a 5.7 Hemi and its located on the front of the engine by the alternator. I dont have a video on it yet....one day I hope to . Thanks for the question and for watching. Make sure to subscribe
Awesome! Glad it worked out. Appreciate you watching this video and then using it to take on that repair. Many thanks and make sure you and your friend subscribe!
One thing I had to do differently was I did not have the specialty socket for the sensor, so I removed the temp sensor above it, and this gave me enough room to use a 1 1/16 wrench to get the pressure sensor out, and the new one back in. slow going, but it worked!
FREE ADVICE I WORKED AS AN ENGINE DISASSEMBLER AT PULL-A-PART A QUOTA OF 25 ENGINES A DAY 6 DAYS A WEEK. You do not have to disconnect the coil packs or move the wiring harness or cut those zip ties!!! SIMPLY DISCONNECT YOUR FUEL INJECTORS UNBOLT THE MANIFOLD AMOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY LEAVE THE BOLTS IN THEN UNBOLT THE LOWER MANIFOLD. 👍🏾. You do not need to disconnect the fuel line it swivels . So take up the lower intake manifold THEN SWING IT TOWARDS THE DRIVER’S SIDE FENDER OUT OF THE WAY. 😂IF YOU ARE TOO SCARED TO WORK ON ENGINES THEN PAY A MAN AND HOVER AND LEARN.
Personally I can remove that intake faster then the wiper cowl. I’ve even done a video removing the upper intake blind folder to show its not hard. Plus it’s the perfect time to replace your plugs and coil boots if you around the 100k mark

That pentastar engine is in all Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep and I have pullen them from Audis . I worked as an engine disassemble rat Pull-A- Part (25 engines a day). The flaw and why these fail is the Plastic unit is sitting on the hot engine block and in time either the gasket for the oil or water will fail contaminating the fluids and when someone pulls their stick the first thing they think of is blown head gasket and if the engine oil gets too much water in it the steam will carry oil pass the rings and it will settle on top of the pistons and start altering the performance of the rings scarring the liners and if left to sit for two days will have corrosion in the cylinders. So you can upgrade it to the Aluminum replacement. Stay away from Autozone, Advanced and O’Rieley’s they say $317 , but I found it in various level of assembly and fully assembled with everything einstallend chiller, filter housing, oil filter, oil pressure sensor, oil temperature sensor upper and lower intake manifold gaskets all lower seal gaskets and all new E8 BOLTS. Do not try to use a 1/4 in socket on these security bolts they will strip.
I got the entire assembly with all gaskets for $70 on Amazon. Now being All aluminum I can upgrade to the Elderbrock supercharger for the 3.6L pentastar they make one for each pentastar and Hemi Engine. Sadly these cost $7,000 but you can get one. And rebuild it yourself if you know how to tighten. Before I caught Covid I pulled 3 they all blow a piece out the bottom which ricochet and gets drawn between the rotor which locks the pulley and burns the belt and choke the engine out because the burnt belt smoke and oil spray if the shrapnel punctures the oil cooler beneath it.

Great videos man but one thing I can suggest is get under hood light so we can see better
Excellent video! The only thing that I did differently was to use a 27mm box end wrench to remove and replace the sensor. Thanks for your great video!
Glad it worked out. As you saw....there are always multiple tools to take on a job. Thanks for checking out and make sure to subscribe
I agree with sdd1842.
The instruction in this video is excellent!
Just- What am I doing? why am I doing it? here's how.
No lectures on tool safety or personal interjection on the right or wrong way to do something.
Excellent video, definitely subscribing and hope you have covered the Ford F150.
cheers!
I replaced the oil pressure sensor with one from Amazon and got a different code. I replaced it with a Standard USA sensor the same code came back. I used a Mopar sensor that I got from the dodge dealer and all the codes went away. I suggest using a factory dealership sensor only.
Hey bud great videos. Thanks and keep ‘‘em coming. Question 13 wrangler.p06dd . changed filter. Voltages is moving up n down. Solenoid switching off/on. What would you do. Daughters Jeep. Code not coming back. I’m gonna monitor with my Autel for a few days???.
Getting started this morning. Thank you for this video. Saved me $300
100% POSSIBLE TO REPLACE THIS SENSOR WITHOUT REMOVING THE INTAKE! GO THROUGH THE BACK!! REMOVE WINDSHIELD WIPERS & COWL !!!
Hey you do know this video is about removing and replacing the entire oil filter/oil cooling unit which you can get in the original stock plastic with the sensors included ? That pentastar engine is in all Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep and I have pullen them from Audis . I worked as an engine disassemble rat Pull-A- Part (25 engines a day). The flaw and why these fail is the Plastic unit is sitting on the hot engine block and in time either the gasket for the oil or water will fail contaminating the fluids and when someone pulls their stick the first thing they think of is blown head gasket and if the engine oil gets too much water in it the steam will carry oil pass the rings and it will settle on top of the pistons and start altering the performance of the rings scarring the liners and if left to sit for two days will have corrosion in the cylinders. So you can upgrade it to the Aluminum replacement. Stay away from Autozone, Advanced and O’Rieley’s they say $317 , but I found it in various level of assembly and fully assembled with everything einstallend chiller, filter housing, oil filter, oil pressure sensor, oil temperature sensor upper and lower intake manifold gaskets all lower seal gaskets and all new E8 BOLTS. Do not try to use a 1/4 in socket on these security bolts they will strip.
I got the entire assembly with all gaskets for $70 on Amazon. Now being All aluminum I can upgrade to the Elderbrock supercharger for the 3.6L pentastar they make one for each pentastar and Hemi Engine. Sadly these cost $7,000 but you can get one. And rebuild it yourself if you know how to tighten. Before I caught Covid I pulled 3 they all blow a piece out the bottom which ricochet and gets drawn between the rotor which locks the pulley and burns the belt and choke the engine out because the burnt belt smoke and oil spray if the shrapnel punctures the oil cooler beneath it.
Love your videos. Thank you so much for taking the time out to teach guys like me. I know it’s been asked and I’ve asked but I am hopefully awaiting that video about the oil pump replacement on the 3.6L. Thanks again!
I do need to get off my rear and do that video. I have everything in place to make it happen except for the time. I will certainly try some time soon to do this repair. Look for it to be multiple parts and also I plan on doing a "by the book" version and then the "shortcut" version so people can choose which they prefer. Thank again for asking.
Will a faulty sensor make the engine light come on, on my 5.7?
For a dodge srt 392 hemi super bee charger do you have a clear picture showing location of oil pressure sensor
What tools ⚒️ are required for this type of job
FYI a 3.6 L Pentastar engine stock is 292 HP. Its block can handle 400+ HP there are upgrades available. And it is a Flex fuel engine.
Very educational and much appreciated. But can you tell me, in regards to that horrible oil filter housing cooling unit, were exactly do they fail? I've seen much on the internet that its poorly designed, frequently replaced, etc. But no-one says where these things fail.
I've replaced of already last month and now a month later the vehicle is leaking from the same pace AGAIN. I'll be returning the part to the dealer under warranty.
Some say its the o-ring seals on the bottom, I feel some of it is where the halves join. Its hard to say exactly because you can only narrow it down so far due to where it is and what can and cant be seen while bolted in place. Thanks for asking Ian and make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic
Done. Subscribed. Thanks for reply. I wish I had happier things to say but needing to do this job again to address another part failure prevents me. Will you tell me please if the torque specs you give for the dodge charger (cooling unit, upper & lower intakes) the same as for a '14 dodge grand caravan sxt 30th anniversary edition with a v6 3.6l vvt engine? I'd really appreciate it. I hate hunting down specific torque specs from non- specialists. Thank you.
Many thanks. Yeah the specs are the same.
@@MotorCityMechanic ☺Awesome. Thanks for the peace of mind. And just fyi, I don't mind getting my hands dirty, I just hate rework due to crappy designs.
Ian Mackenzie I don’t blame you one bit.
Could you let me know if the procedure is the same for a rear wheel drive 3.6 .If not can you list what the differences are.
The video is about the rear wheel drive cars so the procedure is the same
Need video on how to replace oil pressure switch on 2011 Chrysler 200 with 3.6 V6 engine
Thanks Larry! Appreciate the feedback about the video. Make sure to subscribe and hang around to watch more of my videos.
I like how u actually explain how to do it 👍🏼 great video thanks for uploading
Much appreciated. Thanks for watching and for commenting. Dont forget to subscribe!
I have a Promaster, do you know if I can replace the oil pressure sensor without upper intake? thanks
A friend was working on my vehicle I just had open heart surgery so I cant work on things yet. In short when he was bolting the upper intake manifold onto the lower manifold he broke a bolt. It is difficult getting a bolt ordered. Is there and alternative bolt that can be used to bolt upper down to the lower. Thanks in advance.
I just got a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee laredo 3.6l as well. The engine light came on one day after purchasing from a ford dealership(no warranty), and I got the code P06DD, Says its duel stage oil pump & oil pressure sensor. The oil dipstick looks clean and is in the safe area. On my dashboard it still shows me a number on my oil pressure. So not sure exactly what piece is throwing it off. Filter possibly?
Took me an hour to change but.... sensor wasn't flushed to the engine.. so far no leaks no check engine light and oil pressure seems normal.. any advice?
What about for the 2012 Chrysler 300 v8 hemi is it the same location as the 3.6 ?
On that engine is next to the alternator on the front of the engine. Removing the alternator is recommended inorder to get to it. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic Thank you for the info
@@mannygarcia9565 Your welcome!
I had the same error code P0520 0r P0522, i replace the oil pressure that came with the two sensor and the code is still there. I tried to reset it still nothing. i went back to autozome for the check engine light. same popped up. need help.
Great video. Your video helped me to change the oil pressure sensor on our Caravan but the friggen code comes on every month or so. The boys at the dealer said they usually put an oil pump in when they run into that situation but it's one of those crazy things that you never know it's fixed. We have our own auto shop and I don't mind putting in a oil pump if it's going to solve the issue.
Anyway I subbed to your channel months ago and glad I did. Keep em coming. All the best to you in 2017.
I have had to replace one oil pump as well after trying different things to get rid of that common code. Its not the easiest thing to have to replace but sometimes its needed. Thanks for watching Paul. Appreciate the feedback as well.
Thanks David. Man you'd think if it was an oil pump it would trigger that code more frequent than every two months. Once I clear it it's out for another month or two. Oil pump in the oil pan? Remove exhaust and pull the pan down? Thanks for you help buddy👍
Its a crazy yet cool design. Its variable. I have that one oil pump in my shop torn down and was at some point going do a brief video about the way it functions. You have to remove both portions of the oil pan....the stamped steel and the aluminum piece along with the hard to remove exhaust section. Its chanin driven but the front cover doesnt need to be removed. There is an electrical connector that goes out the right side of the block that can be fun as well.
Lol. Sounds like fun. If it becomes more frequent I'll have to dig into it. I'll let you know the outcome. If you can a video would be cool to.
Thats one of those videos that takes alot of time and the issue is waiting for one to come in for that. I will certainly put it on my list of videos to make.
I’ve got a P0522 error code on a ‘12 Wrangler. Plan on making this swap but I have found nothing on the web about 0522,only 0520. Thoughts?
Possible causes are wiring, sensor, or PCM. Make sure no issues with the oil filter and no missing bypass valve. If okay then I would move to replacing the oil pressure sensor. Thanks for asking and for watching, Make sure to subscribe and Merry Christmas Steve.
This is also for 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee V6 correct?
Sure is. Thanks for watching
excellent videos friend, I hope you can help me, I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.6-liter engine that turns on the code p06dd, What can I do to solve that code Greetings from Mexico thanks.
Morning, on that vehicle your most likely going to need an oil pump assembly replaced. Each time I have seen that code....the pump was what fixed it. That will require dropping the aluminum oil pump to get to it. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
@@MotorCityMechanic
Thank you very much friend, I will take it into account and as soon as possible to change the oil pump since the check engine sometimes turns on and sometimes it turns off and when it reaches 3000 revolutions it stops in the truck But I imagine it is so same Thank you very much.
Hello, will replacing this part solve the check engine light for P06DA-Engine Oil Pressure control circuit ?
Is mopar p/n 05149062AB and 68295556AA the same sensor even though they are spec'd for different year model ranges? Thank you.
Your videos are great. Thank you. I have a 2012 Chrysler 300 3.6L. At 75,000 miles Chrysler dealerships diagnosed P066D as Oil Sending Unit and replaced for $400. Now at 82,000 getting the same fault. At time of service I was informed that if code reappears Oil Pump will have to be replaced. No adverse performance to the vehicle that I can tell. What would you recommend?
Yeah it looks like the oil pump assembly will be needed. The times that I have gotten that code the pump was what fixed it. I plan to do that repair soon and film it on the 3.6 that I recently purchased just for filming. But I feel thats the path you need to go down next. Thanks for watching and for the comment. Make sure to subscribe and have a great weekend
Senaddor, did you ever replace the oil pump? curious if it fixed your issue as im in the same boat! UGH!
Hello Brian. Nope, I simply let the code clear itself and it has not came back on since. The vehicle runs just fine.
Brian Ford : Did you have to get yours replaced? I’m in the same boat as you and have been putting it off since it doesn’t seem to affect oil pressure or any sort of performance. Thanks and hope your issues have been resolved!
Great video -
Question - Is the sending unit socket you use in this video equivalent to the Lisle 13200? If not what size is required (diam and length)?
There is a short cut. Remove the cowl and under plate and pull it from behind with a socket
Love your work! Excellent video. Please confirm if this is the same engine configuration as my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo WK2 3.6L?
I need to replace my engine oil pressure sensor as it logged a code and put the MIL check engine light on last week. However, the MIL light has now gone off?
I have this random rubber hose that has a plug that I can’t find anywhere in this video, it looks like it’s plugged into the transmission and the plug says BMC 4 anyone know where it goes ? It’s next to my oil cap???
I replace the oil pressure sensor on my Dodge Charger RT yesterday and today I feel a slight vibration could the oil pressure sensor cause that or is it just a coincidence it has a vibration in low RPMs I did replace the drive shaft coupler last year so it's not.
The oil pressure sensor wouldnt have any affect on that issue. There is something else happening not related to it. It would take some checking and there is no one thing I can point you towards. Thanks for the question and for watching the video. Make sure to subscribe
MotorCity Mechanic sorry to bother you again bro ham but would unplugging the battery mess up the MDS system because it only vibrates when the four cylinders is on when I'm in autostick it's fine or maybe the motor mounts went it started vibrate out of nowhere one day it was fine did a new battery took off the belt and senser and now this
Ive had my 2013 300 throw that code for about a week now. Would it cause huge major trouble if i wait another week to change that sensor? I do need to drive during that week to go to work and all
I feel it will be okay. Its a common issue and electrical, not mechanical. Just make sure you dont hear any engine noise while your waiting to replace the sensor. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe
Is the back bracket supposed to come all the way off? I just changed my spark plugs yesterday and I couldn't remove the plastic part of the screw I was worried I'd break it but I'm going to do it again to change the oil pressure censor
And I like how much information you give us it's super helpful thank you
Anyone know how to clear the engine light after u replace the oil p sensor I'm working on a 06 Dodge Charger rt daytona
You have two options....leave it on and if the issue is fixed.....eventually it will go off by itself. It might take a few days or a week unless that didnt fix the issue. The other option is to have the codes cleared......your local auto parts stored can take care of that for you. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe
Wow he said it right there is no short cuts. Everybody else avoiding all these parts being taken off. Oh my so many parts gotta be disturbed. I see why nobody want to do the job. He doin great job tho
Hi, this procedure should work for 2015 Dodge Durango 3.6l Limited right? I have code P06DE. Thanks!
First off great videos and a great resource for us DIY'ers, and a big thank you! I recently replaced the oil pressure sensor due to a P0520 code on a 2012 jeep wrangler that fixed the issue for about a week, but now i get a P06dd code, but no p0520. What would you suggest next? Oil pump assembly or could i have made a mistake during reassembly? Thanks again!
The sensor is cut and dry when replacing so I dont think you caused any damage. The code P06DD will most likely be the oil pump for sure. Its a common item that causes that code each time I check. I plan on making a video on that repair in the future....got the engine to do it on sitting on a stand....just havent gotten to filming it yet. Thanks for watching and for the question.
hate to bother, but I'm ready to replace oil pump and not finding many guides for the jeep or any pentastar for that matter. Your guides are so solid, i was hoping you might be close to releasing one. Any update by chance or any resources you can recommend? Thanks again for the stellar videos!
Hey brother, looking for P113E and P113D code fix for my 15 300S 3.6 AWD. Just happened right after my Supercharger install w/new PCM and im thinking that it and the original O2 sensors arent communicating effectively.?
Love all your videos bro!
Thank you for the Video. I have questions, I changed pressure oil sensor today. the problem I have is after I start the engine sound very lowed. pleaser advise what could be the problem.
What was the reasoning for replacing the sensor....did you have a code?
Thank You David for the quick response. The code was P0520... I find the issue, the loud noise was from the back of the intake hose was loose not connected.
Hicham Weik Cool.....glad you found the issue. Thanks for the update
Would I have to reprogram the throttle body
Would this be the same for a 2013 Chrysler 200 sport, it has a 3.6
Here is the link to the video that will help you the mosts....its very similar to your vehicle....you just need to remove the airbox to get access to it. ruclips.net/video/5H0Sjp3AcAc/видео.html

kool freaking video... i just changed mine out but the check engine light is still on. i tryed erasing the code with my scanner but it doesn't even come off
It could be the scanner your using or another issue. Remember to clear the codes with the engine not running. What was the exact code you have?
P0520 sir
The tests for the code states possible causes being sensor or PCM. If need be....do a manual power down to see if the code can be cleared that way incase the scanner is part of the issue with clearing the code. Here is the link that explains it: ruclips.net/video/5LlzvDaaiLQ/видео.html
awsome... and do you think it is possible for a wire to be open or shorted? if so whats the proper ohm procedures and reading ?
The is no specific ohm reading given in the test. A wiring issue could be possible. It would require ohming the wires from the PCM to the sensor connector to be sure.
What should the psi oil pressure be for a 2013 dodge Charger v6 be ??
On that engine the oil pressure is all over the place and not a set number. It has variable valve timing and a pump that can change output/pressure so its always changing depending on the driving your doing and the mode its in. What issues are you having and any codes?
P06d code is what I have changed the oil pump. Pump seliniod the oil cooler oil pressure sensor moose oil filter and castrol 5w30 oil so I’m at a lose
300c ?
On the 300c (5.7 hemi) its located on the front of the engine next to the alternator. its kind of hidden, unbolting the alternator makes it easier to get to. Thanks for asking and make sure to subscribe.
Thanks, got it. Clip on the sensor is different, got frustrated and gave up
@@dexterwilliams4130 It should be the same design....it does have a secondary lock however that need to be slid to the side. The connector may be green in color and the secondary lock being white depending on the year.

Awesome video! helped a friend replace his sensor and thanks to you all went perfect! thank you so much!
Awesome! Glad it worked out. Appreciate you watching this video and then using it to take on that repair. Many thanks and make sure you and your friend subscribe!
One thing I had to do differently was I did not have the specialty socket for the sensor, so I removed the temp sensor above it, and this gave me enough room to use a 1 1/16 wrench to get the pressure sensor out, and the new one back in. slow going, but it worked!
What ever it takes! Good job and glad it all went well. Thanks for the info!
FREE ADVICE I WORKED AS AN ENGINE DISASSEMBLER AT PULL-A-PART A QUOTA OF 25 ENGINES A DAY 6 DAYS A WEEK.
You do not have to disconnect the coil packs or move the wiring harness or cut those zip ties!!! SIMPLY DISCONNECT YOUR FUEL INJECTORS UNBOLT THE MANIFOLD AMOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY LEAVE THE BOLTS IN THEN UNBOLT THE LOWER MANIFOLD. 👍🏾. You do not need to disconnect the fuel line it swivels . So take up the lower intake manifold THEN SWING IT TOWARDS THE DRIVER’S SIDE FENDER OUT OF THE WAY.
😂IF YOU ARE TOO SCARED TO WORK ON ENGINES THEN PAY A MAN AND HOVER AND LEARN.
Very easy steps to follow up very clear tutorial thankfully sr.

Great video
Another example of poor engineering in regards to service .
Getting to the oil pressure sensor 11:17
Or you could remove the Wiper Bow to avoid all that👍
Personally I can remove that intake faster then the wiper cowl. I’ve even done a video removing the upper intake blind folder to show its not hard. Plus it’s the perfect time to replace your plugs and coil boots if you around the 100k mark
Omg I’ll just take it in lol
Dont take off the intake. 😂 just replace the sensor
