I am assuming it is the oil pressure gauge, located back side of motor, right below the distributor
An oil pressure sensor socket.An oil pressure sensor socket.
There isn't a sensor that will shut off the engine if the oil pressure is too low
Oil pressure is low, oil pressure sensor has failedOil pressure is low, oil pressure sensor has failed
check your oil pressure sensor, it is an easy fix.
Low oil, low oil pressure, failed oil pressure sensor.
If you are asking if the engine will shut off when the sensor does not detect oil pressure, the answer is no. It will run without an oil pressure reading.
sensor is connected on the oil path, which will measure the pressure of oil. it will indicate the pressure as well as alarming and switched off the dg if pressure is low.
No, a defective oil pressure sensor will not harm the engine as long as the oil pressure is what it should be. However, how do you know what the pressure is if the sensor is bad. Replace the sensor so that you can receive a warning if the oil pressure drops below what is optimum.
The 1995 Nissan Pathfinder oil pressure sensor can be found next to the oil filter. The oil pressure sensor measures the oil pressure in the engine.
The oil pressure sensor sends a reading to the gauge so you can moniter the engine's oil pressure. No oil pressure means the engine is in big trouble.
Computer may be malfunctioning. The oil pressure sensor might not be operating properly. The sensor might need to be changed.
The oil pressure sensor is on the oil cooler, under the intake manifold.
