Omg thank you soooooooo much! I couldn't find anything online that was correct for my car and I finally found your video you saved me!
@Melissa. Thanks so much for your comment. Best of luck with your next DIY project.
Huge help, definitely looks like an easy repair for the front one.
Super cool and informative
Thanks for watching!
Why didnt you put the year in the description?
Where would I find this on a 2007 odyssey?
Great question. It looks like it is in the same spot. Please give us an update
What year is your Honda Odyssey?
It is a 2012.
Do you have to drain the oil before doing that?
@ Matthew. That is a great question. To my knowledge you do not have to drain the oil. Best of luck with your project.
@@BigAl-1 No, do not drain oil, has nothing to do with the oil pan. Just follow the steps above! Hope this helps!
@@frankvasquez1387 Thanks for verifying. Best of luck with your DIY projects.
Question: I have corrosion on the wires of the plug that goes into the switch...which maybe giving me the code.
Any way to fix/replace the wire?
@waymond. I would go ahead and clean them as well as possible. I'm not sure about replacing the wires.
@@BigAl-1 thank you!
@@morwaze Thanks so much for your comment. Best of luck with your next DIY project.
does the chek engine light go off on its own"?
Yes, the check engine light should just go off by itself once it goes through the cycle. Best of luck with your next DIY project and hopefully you subscribe to big Al repairs.
Thanks so much. Did you ever had to replace the back one?
@Cafe Blanco. Thanks so much for your question. Fortunately I have not had to replace the back sensor. Best of luck with your next DIY project. Thanks again for your question and hopefully you subscribe to Big Al Repairs.
Great vid! Had to replace my rear one for my 2011 Pilot on a road trip (thank goodness NAPA that was 30 miles from where we were had only one left in stock with a 100 mile radius). I’m wondering if I should replace my front just for peace of mind since these are known to prematurely fail in Honda. Or is it best to not fix it if it’s not broken?
TJ thanks , I would replace the front one as well if I were you.
Thanks for the video. I just changed both the front and the back. Easy and quick. The only hard part about the back is because of the positioning, you may end up dropping n losing the O ring. So I came up with the idea of putting a pen inside the O ring, while holding the ring with my finger, I dropped the pen in the hole and didn't remove it until I made sure the ring is snug. You will also need a flash light to be able to see the ring when removing and placing. I just rested my phone on the engine and used that.
Those are great tips! Thanks for sharing! We appreciate your comment.
why did yu do theback?
Did replacing the switch solved the problem with the check engine light ? I have same code on my odyssey
I’m changing mine today. I sure hope it solves the check engine problem.
@@ericatravis4074 When I replaced the switch it did remove the check engine light. Yay! Best of luck.
I replaced the oil switch, and reset check engine light but light came back on. It comes back when I drive on highway speed.
@@stbaldawi There is a front and back oil pressure switch. It might possibly be the other switch that needs to be replaced. You could also go to a mechanic and see if they can diagnose it. Best of luck and hopefully you solve the problem.
@@BigAl-1 I have 3497 code which is bank 2 front of engine
what year is this odyssey your working on
@Mrobert. It is a 2012 Honda Odyssey EX-L. Best of luck with your future repairs.
What year? Mine is 2006.
@Random. My Odyssey is a 2012 EXL.
If you had to replace both- both are the same part right ?
@ Sheila. Great question. Because we only changed one switch I am not sure if the other be switch is the same. If you find the answer please let us know.
@@BigAl-1 Yes confirmed with the local honda parts department and they are the same (37240-R70-A04)
Is the oil pressure switch for the back the same as the front?
@F G. That is a great question. I've never changed it back press your switch so I really don't know. I assume it is the same. Please give us an update being in best of luck.
The technical service bulletin (search for TSB 13-031) only has one part number for the switch (and another for the o-ring) and covers the error codes for both front and rear switches, so I'm pretty sure it's the same for both.
@@charlien84 Thanks so much for the update. That is good to know. Best of luck with your next DIY project!
Did the code remove after 24 hours?
I ran out again, thinking maybe I changed the wrong one, but the light reset. lol THANKS A TON! Helped so much!
Yes it did clear in less than 24 hours. I'm not sure how much we had to drive to clear the display.
How do you know if it’s the front or back sensor?
@Kana7782 Great question. I just decided to try the front first because it was the easiest to access and luckily it worked. Thanks for your question and hopefully you subscribe to Big Al repairs.
Big Al I eventually figured it out. There’s two codes and if it’s P3400 it’s the back sensor.
@@Kana7782 Thanks so much for sharing the information.
Actually this is the Back bank. The code refers to Bank, not the side that you look at from the bumper.
Anyone know what size o ring
@ Jerry. Great question. I am really not sure of the size. Please let us know if you find the answer.
Hi just to confirm the switch/sensor in the front that you removed is technically BANK 2 (rear) right? I got the p3400 bank 1 so I assume I need to change the one closest to the driver side.
Great video. My wife threw a code P0522 which pertains to the sensor under the engine near the oil filter. Odyssey Touring 2012. The part is very similar to this but is a 37260-RNA-A01 sensor. So would the procedure to remove end replace be pretty much the same in your opinion but I am just changing the sensor under the engine? Appreciate it!
@Kevin R. My guess is that it would be about the same. That is a great question. Would you please let us know how it turns out? Thanks again for your question and hopefully you subscribe to Big Al repairs.
Great video, thanks for making this!
@Nate. Thanks so much for your comment.
Did replacing the switch solved the check engine light
I need to replace mine but I don't have a torque wrench, what do you recommend, cuz I have to do this by myself
If you got an Autozone nearby, they should be able to loan you a torque wrench. You pay for it, and when you are done with it, you come back and return it to them. Ask them for a loaner torque wrench.
PSA: if you're having p2647 error code, related to rocker arm oil pressure switch, do not panic. In my case after having the code for about a week, I went ahead and cleaned the connectors with the spray that you use to clean connectors and then I realized also that there was oil in there so I just cleaned it out. Fixed. The fix makes sense because remember the oil can conduct electricity and would manifest a short across that switch, resulting in the code and check engine light.
Just got this error code today when coming to a stop in a parking lot and VSA, oil pressure, and check engine came on. My 05’ odyssey has 178k on it and had a VCM muzzler installed at 125k. I’ll need to check for possible connection issues hopefully that’s the case.
What did you do to fix that code? I have an 05 as well and all the same lights popped up on the dash
Thanks for taking the time to make this video, but I believe the front cylinder is actually on the driver side closest to the windshield and the rear cylinder is on the opposite side toward the front of the vehicle. Doesn't seem to make sense, but pretty sure that is how they are on the Ody.
@Milk. Thanks for the information. Best of luck with your next DIY project.
Do you always have to replace the O ring ? Or can you just put in the new sensor??
You could probably get away with using the old O-ring, but I would not risk it. I would always just go ahead and use anew o ring. Thanks so much for your question. Please give us an update. Best of luck with your next DIY project and hopefully you will subscribe to Big Al Repairs.
@@BigAl-1 so the crazy thing is I went and tried to replace the old one for a new one and put the new one in and ended up stripping the threads of my engine block because I screwed it to tight I thought it was the switch at first then later realized it wasn't 😂
@@NizzyHussle Thanks for the update. I hope things turned out okay considering what happened.
What size o-rint? I cant find the answer any where.
How do you know witch switch
That is a great question. I just replaced the front switch and the problem was solved. If you got a detailed scan it would probably tell you. Please give us an update.
How do u know if it’s the front or back ?????
I think on the reading they can tell whether it is the front or the back oil pressure switch. Get a read out and see if there are they able to identify whether it is the front or back. If not, you might want to just start out with the front that is the easiest one to replace and see if that fix the problem. Thanks so much for your question. Best of luck with your next DIY project and hopefully you subscribe to Big Al Repairs.
P3400 is rear, P3497 is front. Search for technical service bulletin 13-031 for all the details straight from Honda.
@@charlien84 thanks for this. I changed the wrong one
Sorry buddy boy that ant the oil pressure switch good day
I’m just curious what it is if it’s not the oil pressure switch? When we bought the part, we bought an oil pressure switch. Please enlighten us as to what it is.
