Thank you JRB my son has this same car and had the same problem but with your video he was able to fix this problem, thank the heavens for mine and my son’s hero JRB
Just did the sensor in my 08 Pursuit Magnum and wasn’t too bad. Unbolting the alternator and moving did help a bunch. Since I had the car in the air for the oil change, removing the old sensor was easier from me from underneath. Hopefully no more check engine light. Mine had 2 codes for the pressure sensor.
There's only three parts you're paying attention to, the tensioner pulley to undo the belt, the alternator which you take off to get out of the way, and the sensor itself
In your opinion does the alternator have to be removed to access the sensor. I have a car lift and was wondering if the car was lifted if you could get to the sensor?
Thank you for the support! Make sure to buy OEM sensors and not aftermarket ones like I showed in this video. I make a few more videos after this explaining that
Hello bro, my 5.7 charger turns off by itself and the only code that appears is p0523 (Engine Oil Pressure Sensor / Switch Circuit High Voltage), is that the problem of the failure?
That's the one. Basically what it's doing is it tells the engine that there isn't any oil pressure so the computer will shut the engine off in order to protect itself.
My 5.7 Magnum is having the same issue. I turn it on to go to work and after about a minute it shuts itself off. Sometimes while driving it will shut off for a fraction of a second and then come back on. The check engine light came on once then went away the next time i started the vehicle. I do not have a obd code reader. Does this sound like the symptoms of a oil pressure sensor as well? Thanks for the video.
So I disconnected the belt and alternator but I got a replacement part form my local autozone. When I tried to put the sensor in to the engine block the threads on the part are all gone and so are the threads on the inside of the block! 😭
I'm sorry 😣, it's gonna be tough to retap the hole because if it's bigger than the sensor it's game over. I would say tap the hole to the same thread size as the sensor and buy a new one from a dodge dealer.
Jesse Busse man you couldn’t be more accurate! I went out to the dealer and got the part and it went in like a glove! Although I had to tap the block with a 5/16 fine tap. Finally got it snug against the block and now it’s time to put it all back together! Thanks again

Glad I could help a fellow car enthusiasts
This helped me. I got mine done on my 2008 magnum. Same process. Thank you
Of course!🤙🏼
Thank you, knocked mine out in about 4 hrs, longest part was getting to red safety clip on the plug!
Such a pain! And dodge puts them on almost every electrical connection
Thanks for sharing! I just replaced this along with my EGR valve, alternator, and all 4 O2 sensors.

Thanks for the video, this just happened yesterday, doesn't look to bad, just need that 1 1/16 socket
Most O'Reilly's or other parts stores carry them. I will preface, try to buy an OEM one and not a generic O'Reilly's/Autozone one🤙🏼
i tripped out when i heard the dog drinking water 😂😂
Thank you bro this video helped me out on my dodge magnum... Thank you again
That's what I'm here for 😂🤷🏼♂️
i realize Im kinda randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to watch new movies online?
@Gabriel Jeremias I would suggest Flixzone. Just search on google for it :)
@Yehuda Brennan definitely, I have been watching on flixzone for months myself =)
@Yehuda Brennan Thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service =) I appreciate it !
Thank you! You just solved my problem. When you THERE, what part is that? Do you know?

In your opinion does the alternator have to be removed to access the sensor. I have a car lift and was wondering if the car was lifted if you could get to the sensor?
There's probably a way but it would be a pain. It only takes a few minutes to take off the alternator
They say loosen the belt
Great video
would you remember if the sensor sat flush? car taken apart rn just wanna make sure before i put it back together. thanks in advance
Mine was flush but it just needs to go until snug. Do not over tighten
And did you 1st take off? My car custom n don't have that guard
Just unbolt the alternator to move it out of the way, then remove the sensor
thank you sir!! I know what to do on my challenger 2013 rt now, !!

Does the oil pressure sensor being bad cause oil leaks?
It might cause a slight leak around the sensor itself where it seeps past the threads
Does it cause it to smoke from the Exhaust when you need a new oil pressure switch?
Did a little digging and nothing I could find would make it do that no. Sorry if I couldn't help much😕
I think that’s the problem with mine. Sometimes when I come back from a drive I’ll throw it into park and the engine shuts off by itself
I never had that problem, I would double check engine codes
cool way
Thanks?

i didn’t know it could cause that, mine only show a check engine light
@@christopherhuezo3485 most of the time that's the case

What size socket did you use
At 4:36 I mention it's 1 1/16 inch socket
How tight did you tighten the new sensor?
I didn't don any torque specs. I just did snug against the block because the brass will strip very easily if overtightened

Glad i could help. Light go away?
I don’t have the check engine light on but my oil light turns on on a stoplight but goes off soonest I accelerate.
I would change out the pressure sensor anyway. It could be on it's way out since it comes on at lower rpms
You should check actual oil pressure before you go swapping sensors
Did you ever figure it out...mine do that to
@@iamdjlee1837 Yes , in my case it was a the oil pump that was bad soonest I replace it the problem was gone….
@Ace 43 I think that my problem. As soon as mine warm up and I come to a stop the light comes on. Did you do install yourself?
Disconnect the battery before even touching that alternator otherwise good video
Appreciate it🤙🏼
Don't take your alternator off.
It's a lot easier to access and makes filming better. Technically yes you can get it off without removing it but in the same breathe it's only 3 bolts
2nd view but first like and first comment
Appreciated
Love the hat kid. Where'd u get it ?
