Question about low oil light ????? It seems that my low oil light is playing tricks on me. It has been coming on here lately, and when it does I check my oil and it is full. I added another quart for good measure so it is now above the normal operating level and the light persists but only occasionally. The car has good oil pressure and I know it is full because I have checked it, do ya think maybe that sensor is just going bad? Any and all help would be appreciated. Thank you Mike Knight.

Re: Question about low oil light ????? Under your car... on the oil pan... passenger side. You have a octogonal plastic sensor that screws into your pan... make sure the plastic screw in plug is in there tight...
Or it could be going bad. It sould take you only a few minutes to change this out.
1. disconnect battery.
2. remove starter.
3. remove wires from plug in.
4 unscrew and remove te plastic octogonal screw in sensor.
5. screw in and replace parts in reverse order.
Good luck.
