If the oil sending unit is leaking oil by the inside of the component, then I don't know of any way to fix that other than removal and replace with another one. If it is leaking by the threads, then you can try Teflon tape to seal that. Also make sure it is leaking from the sending unit and not leaking down from the valve cover.
The plug or sensor above the oil filter on a 1996 Cherokee is the oil pressure sending unit. This sensor controls the oil pressure gauge.
Check sending unit or sending unit wiring for short to ground. Also could be a plugged oil line causing a spike in pressure. Try installing a mechanical gauge to get an accurate pressure reading.
It's a 30 dollar part. The unit should be located near the filter. Unplug/Unscrew the old one and insert new and plug in.
Perhaps worn engine bearings due to excessive mileage or lack of regular maintenance
Your tach wire color is Gray. And it's located at Coil on passenger side of the engine. This goes for 1997 through 2001.

Passengers side of the engine, right above the oil filter.
Depending on the type of motor in the grand, the oil pressure sending unit should be located somewhere on the side of the engine block. Check the wiring harness to make sure of good connection, then trace wiring back and try to find cut or nick in the wiring.
You're likely looking at the oil pressure sending unit.
The oil pressure sensor is on the top rear of the engine, next to the distributor.
probly a loose wire connection at the oil sending unit
Not too difficult... That is, if you can find it. I have a '96 JEEP GC Ltd & my oil pressure sending unit was located at the back of the intake manifold by the distributor cap. !!!Pain in the Ass!!!
Its the oil sending unit - get a new one they are only like $10 and easy to change.
Low oil level, failed oil pressure sending unit, plugged oil filter, internal engine problem.
On the 4.7 V8 it is above the oil filter, you'll see the wires going to it.I checked and it is a 1 1/16" deep socket for the sending unit.
If check gauges is lit and the oil press gauge is low, you have low oil pressure or a failed oil pressure sending unit.If check gauges is lit and the oil press gauge is low, you have low oil pressure or a failed oil pressure sending unit.
The oil pressure sending unit on a 1999 inline six cylinder is located on the engine block very close to the oil filter. It is constructed of plastic and metal, screws into the block and has a two wire lead plugged into it.
