Greetings,

Working on replacing the engine oil pressure switch #16 on the service manual diagram.

I'm working on the ground with a creeper to do this repair. Do not have a lift.
Looking for some advice on how to get a clear view of the sensor on the oil pump so I can see what I am doing rather than feel around
I did jack the car up about a foot, and I can kind of see what Im doing.....I went higher and there was no way to get a clear shot of the sensor.

If anyone can shed some light ... it would be most appreciated.

Option 2---repair shop. lol

Thanks!

 

Go through the passenger wheel well, to the left of the crank pulley. #16 below..

 

I have an 09 TL 3.5 and to replace the oil sensor I found the best way was under the hood behind the strut bar with a long extension. Not sure if we are talking about the same sensor but might be an easier way to get to it.

 

Has anyone posted a DIY with photos or a video? I'd like to proactively replace mine at my next oil change. 2013 TL Fwd with 67,000 miles. Original owner.
