Hello, my low oil light on dash comes on at idle. I need to find location of oil light sensor on block. Not the oil sending unit located next to oil filter, that goes to separate gauge on dash. The sensor that operates the light. Please need help?

Hello,

Apparently there are two different oil pressure sending units for your vehicle, one with a gauge, and one without, but they are the same component. That is why you are having trouble finding it, you've already found it. In the diagrams down below I have included a wiring diagram for your vehicle's Oil Pressure Sensor Circuit[Highlighted] and an Original Parts Manufacturer[OEM] Part number for your vehicle's sending unit. Please get back to us with how everything turns out. I hope that this helps.

Thanks,
Alex
