- By hand Tighten at the 3:03 mark I mean don't over tighten it with the socket it will cause a crack if you do.
No one likes to see a Low Engine oil Pressure warning, it could be something series, but in most cases it's as simple as a cheap part from an Auto Parts store. #edge #fordedge #oilpressure #lowoil #ford #sensor

My 2011 Ford Edge is working again after having flashed “LOW Engine Oil Pressure”, showing check engine light, lost power steering, then completely shut off.
It looks like this video accurately identified the problem, though I was able to accomplish the task more easily by accessing the pressure sensor from beneath the car. This required an extension on the wrench in addition to the universal elbow. The powerful light I purchased was also helpful to see by.
After starting the vehicle and having it die once more, I tightened the new sensor to ensure its proper sitting and reset the system by detaching the negative (black) terminal on the battery, waiting a while, and reconnecting it before hopping back in and starting it again (always start and end with black; do not touch both end at same time). At this point it has remained running for a promising amount of time and I thank God that I came across this resource and broke down a mile away from an AutoZone.
I am happy to hear that you got it running again! Thank you for your feedback!
Hello I have the same problem my Ford Edge 2013 goes off and it’s shows Low engine oil pressure I’ve replaced the sensor I’m still having the issue please help thanks
My 2011 Ford Edge is having the same issues . Can you write a step by step process on how you fixed it please?
@@theweatherguy9837Hello, have you finally fixed it ?
Good video I appreciate you doing it. Getting the electrical connector off the old sensor was tough doing it blind but I was surprised that it eventually came off no problem. Also getting the right combination of sockets and extensions to work took me a while. After getting the old sensor out a fair amount of oil dripped on the ground so I thought I should make sure to put the new sensor in good and tight. Definitely went beyond just snugging it so hope I didn’t crack the case. No oil leaking from the case so far. Thanks again.
Glad to hear, if it ever does leak in the future some high heat teflon tape will help keep it in there snug without breaking anything.
The sensor requires 21mm deep socket. We measured the sensor with calipers and indeed it is 21mm. A 6 point 22mm would probably catch it but a 12 point 22mm will not. DeVin probably used a 6 point 22mm. Good luck.
Yes depending on your vehicle it might be a slightly different size.
great video very helpful Job done in about 15 minutes Thanks for the information
Awesome, I am glad it helped!
Thanks! This helped, hopefully that pesky message stays away! It has so far. 🤞🏻
Awesome, glad it helped!
Thx man super helpful
Anytime, we love helping others out
thanks a lot very informational
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for the positive feedback.
Did you say hand tightened the oil pressure sensor shouldn't you tighten it backup with the socket wrench?
Yes tighten it with the socket but only snug it, don't over tighten it or it will crack the engine case.
Thanks for sharing 😊
I appreciate the positive feedback!
How did you get your hand in there to unplug the censor? There is no scenario where my hand reaches that sensor without taking more parts out.
If I remember correctly I stood about the middle of the car with my hip against the bumper then with my palm facing the engine I put my hand down and back; then pushed the sensor clip with my thumb and then pulled it out. I can palm a basketball if that helps judge what size my hands are.
I had to use a 21 mm for my 2013. Not a 22mm.
Thank you for your feedback!
Should I drain the oil before replacing the sensor?
I did not, but I also had it up on ramps so there is a possibility it went to the back of the pan. Either way it shouldn’t leak out very much. I would just put a drip pan under the edge if you’re worried.
Just a thought, because your method looks much better than others on YT.....
Saying what you did AFTER you did it is really a huge letdown for those of us who might follow your guidance....
How you snake the ratchet & deep socket over the sensor, for example, is pretty important to the repair process.... Same with disconnecting the upper O2 sensor that you mentioned....
Side note, the other vixeos on this topic refer to a 21mm deep socket, you said you used a 22mm socket....
Thank you for your sharing this.... I have a new sensor on order tho usps has it delayed up north.....
Most of my videos are more detailed and show everything I do, I had to quickly get this done so my wife could have her car back. I personally used a 22mm so it might be a different size depending on if the sensor is aftermarket or not.
What symptoms did your car have at the time of 'low engine oil pressure"?
If the sensor is bad you won’t have any symptoms the car will drive normal since you don’t actually have low oil pressure. If you’re experiencing other symptoms then there might be another underlying issue.
@@diydevinmy 2009 ford fusion is saying low pressure and no start no click nothing all battery items are fine. Please any advice?
@@stephm3170 I am not familiar with that car personally, but it’s likely a bigger issue if nothing is happening.
Is it the oil pressure sensor? That you replaced.
Yes
Yes it is.
Awesome
I've replaced this and mine is coming on only at idle. any suggestions? how can i check the oil pressure? I replaced the radiator fans too and it helped for a month or so. then started again and it's worse now. every red light it comes on.
Some auto parts stores will check your oil pressure for free. Or if you have a scan tool with live data it can check as well.
Do you the PN of the sensor?
I do not, it might be different depending on year, the process is the same though. Any auto parts store should be able to get you the right one.
Anyone try replacing it from underneath?
I personally did and it would work but it was way harder to see what you were doing. If you had a camera so you could see what you were doing; then doing it from underneath would possibly be easier.
@@diydevin okay thanks Dev
I get this error most times when driving
And the car shuts off immediately it shows
If you have replaced the sensor and you are still getting an error then there might be another issue going on.
@@diydevin Same with me, i have tried replacing the oil pressure sensor twice in one year and still the same issue. "LOW OIL PRESSURE" light and the engine starts shutting off while driving.
@@dammamfoodie5278have you resolved this issue ?? Because I need help asap honestly please reply back it will be of great help thanks!!
Did u fix yours
Liar!! You can’t remove the shield without unplugging the cord? 😢
We are sorry you feel that way. I’m going to quote from the video “make sure you unplug that sensor” at 2:09
Having the video just right up in the engine doesn't help at all. No idea where you are in the engine bay.
I’m sorry you feel that way. If you locate your oil cap then you should be able to follow along. In most of the shots you can see the oil cap; and when I go down into the engine bay you can see it right before I put the camera down lower.
