How do you know the oil pressure sensor is going bad?

If your vehicle's oil light comes on and you have no other symptoms like the car getting hot. Then it is likely your sensor has gone bad. I just replaced mine on a 1999 Dodge Grand Caravan. The only thing we had was the oil light on and the annoying dinging from the oil light. Nothing else ever went wrong with the van overheating or anything. Replaced the sensor and all is fine. This is the only vehicle I have ever had that had this sensor go bad. So it was a learning experience for me - lol
