Thank you so much! I thought my engine was fixing to go. Only 76k miles & well maintained, not loosing power, no awful engine sounds. This is going to save me money. Wish I lived in Florida I’d have you do it. Shari in Oklahoma City
Cool glad I could help
Great video. My 07 oil light and buzzer went off yesterday. Oil fine. So did oil change this am. Read a few comments about guys doing oil change and THEN light comes on. After I go for mid range drive tomorrow hopefully it doesn't, but if does, thanks to your video, be a quick fix. Cheers
awesome tim. look forward to seeing everything around the shop. im a tool junkie as i believe alot of other people that watch these vids are as well so i think u will do well with a good shop-toolbox tour whether your old school or not. from what we can see on the vids u have a great work space there. have a happy thanksgiving. love the new astro light as well. im gonna order one this weekend. they seem great. a good light makes all the difference.
Happy Thanksgiving to U. We have been SOOOO busy. Had to work 1/2 day today. But I'm not complaining. I love it! Give me a little time on to shop overview. I have a new Wheel alignment system come and Napa is going to give the shop a facelift. { paint job} Hoping to get this completed. Before Dec 31. Tax write off U know. Dylan have are your Hobbies? Mine are Kayak Fishing, And I'm and Ham Radio Amateur. It's install in my SUV.
Don't know if that going to be my issue but I will check into that. Very in formative video, Thanks
It was actually much easier to remove the air box, unbolt the fuse box mounting bracket. You should then be able to see the clip that is giving everyone a hard time on the sensor. I did it this way and it was so much easier than trying to get at it from underneath. I also had the power steering cooler in my way underneath.
Cool I giving it a try. I understand with a lift under the car would be tough.
The video shows that the mechanic went straight to the sensor without obstacles. I don't understand why you had so much hassle in doing the change up from under the car. But, i will find out soon how easy it is.
I just changed my sensor...I abandoned the access via the top method....and put my cruiser on ramps ....my experience was that underneath is by far!!!.......the best method!!......mine is a turbo so maybe more clutter up top........I found enough room and no cooler in the way!
i play alot of golf in the summer and snomobile in the winter. im also always tinkering with one vehicle or another im sure u know how that goes.
Alright man. When I need some work done on my 2005 cruiser that I can’t handle myself I’m coming to see you from Valrico.
Awesome dude thanks learned a thing or two 😎
Good Video, helped me fix my daughter's car, Thanks!
You're welcome James anytime
what do you do if you the plug you plug into the switch breaks in your hand. I plugged it in , then pushed button to lock it in and it broke ????
Found there's a pin flaw in that tab that will cause the light to come on , I replaced the sensor and just pulled that pesky pin out and threw it away an i check it every year just in case,
But the light never came back on an it runs fantastic on my 04 base 79k Cruiser.
Thanks for sharing 👍🏼.
No problem you’re welcome
This sounds like the issue we are having with our 2007 pt cruiser. Oil light and alarm comes on, especially when idling. No engine noise and the oil is full. Thanks for this. Going to see if we can get it fixed.
Was a idling issues with this I'm also have the oil light plus a idling issues
No Idle issue just an oil light
I have a 2002 dodge stratus with high mileage but runs fantastic. I use it to commute back and forth to work about 120mi a day round trip m-f and sometimes about 50mi on weekends. I have to put about a half a quart of oil in it about every other week to top it off maybe longer because I just checked it and it was still full and I haven't put oil in it since I changed it not last weekend but the weekend before. Anyway I noticed this a while ago when I took the car on a long drive up a mountain that when I stopped the oil light flickered just once never noticed again until yesterday but only flickers on occasion when I put the car in park. The first time it did it I wasn't sure it actually came on because I just seen it for a split second and until now I realize that's what it was. Anyway valves don't seem to be ticking nor have I noticed any issues which I'm pretty good about noticing the slightest issue. The first time the light came on I was looking out the window and only seen it out of the corner of my eye but no other lights have come on so I assume that's the one. Also a couple dash bulbs went out and I ordered the replacements but they started working again so that's confusing lol. They also dim on occasion for a second but I've just replaced the alternator and battery a few months back and it still does it. Anyway only issue I'm concerned about it oil light. It is just a work car but it I'd like to run her until theirs nothing left lol.
Thanks for the video but, I see that PT cruiser you are working on is a turbo and my 2005 is not. I am starting to find out that the oil pressure switch is not in the same location as turbo models. I am doing searches every where I can and it is still very elusive. I need to change mine because with 166000 miles on it the oil has travelled up to the ECU plugs and into the ECU. That's not good! I'll get it eventually.
Hy every body i have a pt cruiser 2003 gt turbo when hes running the oil checks comming they turn off and i wait for 15 minute or more and they running againg i dont no what is going on i need help thats
Thanks to this video I replaced a $20 oil pressure sensor on my 2007 pt cruiser instead of thinking the worst and jumping to the conclusion that the oil pump was on its way out. I found the exact same thing he did the sensor failed and was leaking oil into the sensor connector shorting it out and giving a false warning.
MrZ281980 excuse me, if i kept driving for like a month this way before i fix it, whould my car have a problem? Keep in mind that oil level is above the minimum
I have a 2008 pt cruiser. Pearl is making noise in the oil pan but, the motor runs good. Sounds like it was the harmonic balancer, the tensioner pulley and alternator pulley, it wasn't. It's coming from the bottom of the oil pan. Is this a job I can do myself?
I’d like to help and say that you could but I don’t know what’s wrong with it.
Como hiciste para sacar la ficha del sénsor?
Nice video thanks!
Thanks trying to get better at doing this appreciate the comment
I have no light for tje oil sending unit, my needs oil to top off from time. If my unit is bad, will the the oil travel towards the front, just curious?
Inside the plug harness would be full of oil
great video
Thanks for tuning in glad you like it
I just changed sensor with oil change after having the same thing happen to me. Now my oil light comes on at first startup, whether running for 5 minutes or 30 seconds, it comes on and I shut engine down and restarting, no oil light. I just took off negative battery terminal hopefully will reset sensor light
make sure that the old sensor plug is very clean. and as a precaution I would have amanda or pressure test done
I know this is an older video, but I love my car! I recently had the oil light pop on only at idle and or stop lights, then shuts off when pressure builds back up. Am I safe to assume the pump is still doing its job and this is more than likely the issue?
Gary Stanislawczyk I can’t tell you for sure but it’s an expensive repair. Obviously I would do this first
Did this fix work for you? I just bought a 2002 PT Cruiser and noticed the same thing happening when I braked. As soon as I start driving again it shuts off.
@@jenmadsen3760 I'm having this problem too with my 2004. Did you find out or get it fixed?
This happens with me too. Did you find out what happened?
@@JoeyDNetsfan it was a sign of other things going wrong. Cam position sensor first and then I lost the timing belt. My cruiser is parked waiting for repair
Do you have a video how to replace the crankshaft seal?
No I’m sorry I don’t have a video of that yet. I’ll see what I can do soon
04 PT Cruiser .oil cooler is in the way and the axel...I just can't get to it..
Why is mine this difficult arrrg.......
Wow I’m sorry it’s being so difficult. I have not experienced one with a turbo yet
My oil light only comes on in engine hot condition at idle. At a red light for example. When I rev it up just a little light goes off. Could the sensor still be my issue or do you think it's rather the pump?
I have the same problem did you get it fixed?
LENNON BLACK yes it was The sensor
Thanks hope it's the same issue with me, was your car also spotting small spots of oil?
LENNON BLACK yip... But not very big ones ... The leak just "covered the entire lower engine" in a film of oil
So its a pretty cheep fix too... I think I paid 10 bucks for the new sensor....
@@ChaosRC666 what kind of sensor are you talking about? I'm having your issue at idle too. My oil light coming on and shutting off at red lights.
Thanks for the video. My 2004 cruiser is shutting off at idle, today it happened at a red light waiting to make a turn. After it turned off, the battery light came on. i turned the car off then back on and it came on good, then turned out of the intersection to go to the bank, then a few seconds later, i get out the bank, turn on my car, wait a few seconds in idle, quite a rough idle too i should add, then the car turns off again, this time with no battery light, but only the oil light. These incidents happened within 5 minutes of each other. Once again , i turned the car off then back on again, and i successfully drove to work without any more stalling. I get out work then go home, and i didn't have any problems at all. I think the reason it happened is because i was driving on the highway shortly before those incidents occurred. Is it possible high speeds or temperature can cause the stalling/rough idles? Sorry for the long comment. I would like to know what this is before it gets worse and i get stuck at an intersection again, or if it gets worse...safety wise and/or financially. Thank you.
I got an 04’ and I just rebuilt the engine and it runs beautiful, no oil leaks, and I still have that exact same problem. It was doing that before the rebuild. Usually only in hot weather it happens, never in cooler weather. I did take the oil pump apart and measured everything, it’s all to spec as in the manual, so I did not need a new oil pump. I am thinking maybe it’s the transmission torque converter because it only happens sometimes at idle, usually after driving on the highway. I did replace the oil pressure unit too.
That exact fix worked on my car for 2 years. But now the oul light is flickering at idle when the engine comes up to temperature whats the fix for that.
First need too test oil psi. If psi is good could be pressure switch again for the pigtail harness connection
Did you have to drain the oil before doing this?
Travis Martin No you don’t have to drain the oil
Please can you provide a pressure switch part number ?
are you serous ? watch the vid he says the part #
Hi Mr Cooper ,My Pt Cruiser 2007, the oil OIL LIGHT FLASHING [on] When I turn on the engine, I need to turn the engine off and on again, the oil light is off. I need to start 2 times to get the light off. Any idea of the problem
Edson Suzena Possibly The same problem Or a connection issue to it. Wouldn’t think you think you have an old pressure issue
@@CoopersAutomotiveRepair i have an 06 that's red and going from steady to blinking and back to steady. it goes off for about 10-15 seconds then comes back. do you think i have the same problem?
PhilthAdelphiA To the best of my judgment yes I would say that is your problem. People need to make sure there’s no oil in the plug. Everything is clean when they replaced the switch. My disclaimer is that I can’t take responsibility. If it is something else like lack of low pressure. That’s where I would start first
@@CoopersAutomotiveRepair thanks! i appreciate the fast response. im sure the oil pressure is fine because the car runs and drives normally. im going to test some more tomorrow. my mechanic said i should hold it around 3000 rpm for a minute or two and listen for changes in the sound of the engine.
I like your video's Mr Cooper and if you want the kind of views Eric O and some of the others get I would buy a real video camera. It can be a cheaper one like the Sony HDRC440 (around $300) It will make all the difference in the world compared to the cell phone or tablet you're using to record with now. It might look fine on a cell phone screen but on a TV or real computer screen it leaves a lot to be desired.
Get a new camera person as well, no point in having a camera person if they won't move the camera to actually see what your working when it's hidden behind a sub-frame or behind a control arm.
You put out a lot of good info and have a good on camera personality, it's my thought is the video quality is holding your channel back. It could be I'm totally wrong and people only like watching videos of rust bucket vehicles...
Great advice. We use Olympus TG-870 Tough Waterproof Digital Camera. I understand what you're saying Need better camera Man. Thanks bro.
This video I think was with the Cell cam. Let me see what i can do to help my Camera man to Get better shots. I thank you again. Eric O is awesome. Mark have a Happy Thanksgiving.
I hope you have a happy thanksgiving as well.
What size socket did u use?
If I remember right it’s an inch and 1/16
I have a 2005 Sebring would you know where I could find that . thanks
I can’t recall where the oil pressure switch is on the Sebring . I think close to the Oil filter
@@CoopersAutomotiveRepair thank you
ver good
Tengo un Pt cruiser 2009 me salta el codigo P0522
Mine been on 6mos not spending300$ to fix 2002 voyager 2.4
what if I changed the sensor and its still doing it even do the sensor is new
ESCAMILLA1130 Possibly low oil Pressure. Bad connection at the sensor. Or a defective new sensor that was installed
Coopers Automotive Repair how did you know if it has low oil pressure the engine doesn’t knock it is actually very stable no mis fires
ESCAMILLA1130 Just to rule out oil pressure. Connect a manual or pressure gauge to the spot the oil center switch goes. And I don’t I believe it should be at least 15 psi or better with the engine hot. But my assumption is possibility he didn’t clean all the oil out of the connector plug? Or sometimes it’s best to have a factory or pressure switch.
What size socket to remove it?
To make a special socket call Oil sender socket But I believe you can use a 1 inch or inch and a 16th
@@CoopersAutomotiveRepair I just did my today I went through the top remove the airbox it was a son of a b**** to get too but it took me two and a half hours only because I bought the wrong socket the first time I had to go all the way back to the auto parts store but I got it thank you for the video man
how are u tim. getting snow up here in central ny now. i would love to see a video of a shop and toolbox tour. that would be great my friend
I can do that. I'm old school. The tool boxes are old snap on. Nothing special. But I will do a shop overview. O my. That means i have to clean house LOL. Weather is nice here. 50 low to 70's high.
2005 PT cruiser crankshaft seal replacement...
which key to take the sensor
Deep well inch and 1/16
1 inch 1/16
Thank you.
Red n
I did mine now the engine light is on.
I did mine hour ago. Seems quite a few people after doing oil change have your problem. Going to pick up a sensor tomorrow. Just in case same thing happens. Cheers
@@chrismcdonald6481 what kind of sensor?
I cant take tell if hes 17 or 61...either way thx lol
I could pass for either or LOL you’re welcome
