Not sure of what engine you have, so I attached a pic of the oil sensor for both the 4 and 6 cyl. Take a look and see if that is the part you are dealing with. If it is, expect to pay around 25.00 for it. Also, to replace it, you will need a special socket that most parts stores will have. Disconnect the wiring to it and screw it out of the engine.

The first pic is the 4 cyl. The second is the 6 cyl.
