This happened on my 2002 Limited about a year ago I had the same issue. The light was flickering so I took this little piece out and just threw it away. Sprayed the rest of the switch with some brake cleaner just to get all the grime out of it and it’s still working today. This man has a lot of great do it yourself tips. These honest mechanics are a dying breed. God bless you sir.
MARRY ME!!! Not only have you saved me $300+ but you are a straight up HONEST guy. We beed LOTS more mechanics like you around.
Lol, thanks, and thanks for watching my friend. Please thumbs up the video and subscribe to the channel for me, thanks
You are the best and talk in a way that I can understand... Not that mechanic talk that loses me with terms...
I don’t even have a car 😂, i just love watching you talk.
😂😂😂 you're on your way to becoming a human OBD2 Code inspector bud 👍🏾
Finally I knew it wasn't a bad engine. No knock or rattle but that stupid light keeps coming on. Thanks for being straight up on this.
There was about 41/2 minutes of information, but it was so entertaining that I had to watch the whole thing. My neighbor has a 07 pt, and she has questions every once in a while, so I subscribed here. You sound knowledgeable, and you try to get the point across so hard it's fun to watch.
Good job. It's appreciated. Thanks.
Dude I have had this problem on my PT Cruiser for years but only in the summer. I rebuilt the engine, has 310,000 km on it, and I changed the oil pressure unit and I still have this problem and the oil pump is fine so you just fixed my car! Many other PT owners have the same problem, one guy I read rebuilt his engine and added an oil cooler just to fix this one issue. Thanks👍
Your explanation makes so much sense!
I have been seeing 'thousands' of videos about the problem, but no explanations, nor do any say anything about hooking up a pressure gauge to verify the problem.
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!! You've saved my sanity. 🤣 There was a good bit of oil buildup when hubby pulled the "bullet" out. We just recently got an pull change so we were wondering what the problem was. Thanks again!
Damn man i thank you soso much i had this problem for years and the workshop changed everything. The oil seals, oil pan oil sensor but ntohing worked and i payed so much money. And in the end it only was a little plastic pen. You are the best men.
Thank you so much for the video. I unplugged that sensor and I heard it make a woosh sound when it released the pressure! You’re the man!
Thanks for watching. Please remember to thumbs up the video and subscribe to the channel. Thanks
Just listening to this...it sounds like Roy Jones Jr giving me good advice on oil pressure.
Haha you're right lol. One my favorite boxers
I was impressed by your unique presentation and I respect yours years of car experience with the Pt Cruiser. I subscribed to your channel with expectations of hearing and learning more about (the trick of the trade).
Thanks for tuning in bud. I have a complete playlist on PTs and more added regularly so stay tuned
I'm going to try and fix this myself. Thank you so much for taking the time to walk us thru this.
You're simply amazing, very thorough. I believe that I can do this myself and I'm going to try. Thank you so much.
Hey Becky,, go for it. And thanks for watching my friend.

Thanks and you welcome my friend.
AWESOME TIP.. THANK YOU...
Too bad there aren't more honest mechanics around. I'm having problems with a oil pressure sensor in my 2007 H3 Hummer now.
GOD BLESS & THANK YOU
Thanks for watching Jason, please remember to thumbs up the video and subscribe to the channel, thanks
Had to smog mine in CA , failed due to my drive cycle to pass but oil light popped up an lost $60.00 on my smog certificate.
Took your advice pulled pin , did my drive cycle OIL LIGHT never came on vehicle was ready and PASSED! with no indication of oil pressure problem listed on smog check, so thank you!
It usually only came on when the car was hot
That is why you're reason makes it 100% accurate.
An thank you for suggesting replacing the sensor just in case there is any oil pressure issue this makes it a perfect preventive maintenance suggestion.
Thnxs Again!

I have a Chrysler 300. Thankyou for the honesty.
Thanks a lot for the info I've replaced the unit and removed the pen as adviced now oil light is gone and the car runs as usual, However there's a bit of extra noise kind of like compressed air blowing while the car is running, should I worry about it or just ignore it?
Gonna give it a shot right now! *I "subscribed".
Thanks bud. Good luck

Great video. Thanks for all the info and tips.
Your lucky we're not neighbors, you would have 2 more PT's to work on or "help" with.
My mom's + mine. Lol. I did the next best thing n subscribed. Thanks again. Have a good one.
This man is the real deal
Thank you for the video. I wonder if that will be same issue for other car makes. I have a jeep compass. It was running fine 3 days ago. I knew it was low on antifreeze, I added it but found oil leaking in the top gasket after driving the car for 20 min, that's when light goes on. Any suggestions Thanks.
I DID IT! I replaced my wiper switch and my oil sending unit myself! Thank you for your help! One question though, is the oil pressure "sensor" and the oil pressure "sending unit" the exact same thing?
This man knows what he is doing
Thank you for making the video. It's been a week, and the oil sending unit warning light has yet to come on. I did remove the plug/spike and replaced it with a piece of tubing from a can of brake cleaner I had. I also found oil running down the side of the engine and found another video showing that I needed to replace the PVC valve and hose, which solved all my issues. It's crazy that a hose will stretch and weaken to the point of leaking, and there are no clamps on the OEM; poor design. The replacement of the oil sending unit wasn't hard, but it was a pain to reach it. Most of it is by feeling for it and not seeing the part. No more warning lights and no more leaks.
Thats whats up my friend. Thanks for watching and remember to thumbs up the video
was this a pt or a town and country or caravan might have to see if thats a problem on my van
@@vibingwithredd4540 The repair apply to any vehicle using this connector.
Man I just went out side to check the van to see a leak on some card board I left this morning. Minimum. Now looking at it overhead .
1. Found burn exposed wire leading down towards the sensor
2. Three wires hanging
I turned the van on and the lights was going off oil light and chime . So I opened the window and started wiggling the wires and checking every time same thing chime and lights. Then I looked and the plastic cord protector on the bunch of cables and it was a lil piece disconnected . Man I added that piece to the last wiggling and wellll………. God is goooooooood cuz the lights went out and I don’t have to get under there before work . I bought the piece and was gonna order a oil pan and gasket now I just gotta go to the 1.25 plus tax store and get some black tape . Everyone God is great u take one step he’ll match each time . Moral of the story be a lil proactive if you don’t have the cash . Pray on it research and try . I did and loook ant the outcome
I've had the flicker in my 2001 since I bought it. I'm a second owner.
I've heard that it was a common issue and as long as my oil was good I disregarded it.
My grandson is using the car now. Recently I replaced the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gasket, as well as brakes suspension and steering.
Doing the work Myself I didn't mind spending the money for parts, knowing they are all new now and at a fraction of just a few new car payments.
My grandson gets crazy about the light flickering and thinks it's gonna burn up.
I told him that we shouldn't be leaking oil now and as long as he checks and it's good, don't worry.
I can't wait to try this fix and get rid of the issue and my grandson worrying about it.
Hey buddy very easy ro understand and all mechanics should be as intuned to the customer or owner of a vehicle needing repair.
I wanted to ask you about my magnum se 2.7l. Over the holidays it had been leaking coolant and i took it into a different shop then normal. I was not comfortable with it but needed it for holiday. Car went in for diagnostic. Included was water pump, tensioner timing cover gasket valve cover gasket or plenum gasket thermastat and housing in addition to tune up and oil change with filter this was original verbal estimate of 1100 With additional request of oil change w filter tunewith plugs and wires if needed. He requested car be left dor at least 3 days. I said 3 days thats alot of time. So he said 2 days byt i lije to say 3 in case because we need to check timing chain guides because its all in same area. So i Dropped car aftrr talking with mechanic because he seemed knowledgable regarding this particular model engine. I discussed what i wanted as far as qualit u in a part and didnt nrmally buy from oreillys for quality OEM parts are the way to go for length of work involved and money i spent and he said oh no that would be cery expensive but it was my choice as a customer and owner. At any rate i requested also old parts be put back in my car as well as new boxes. second day i dropped by to check in after calling regarding abilit to purchase kits for thermistaf n housing as well as water pump kit to save me money and knock out other areas as mileage was at that inteval I also wanted my estimate an work order as i only signed a form for them to get started. Over phone he basically revealed it was thermistate chanfinf order to only thermistate n housing but 500.00 i asked what was included to be so high he quoted spark plugs being 9@ a new reservor etc erc but still didt gve e a estimate on visiting i noticed my engne had oil buildt up like a coating and starting to accumulate. Long story short my car ran good ever any check egbe light no dash warning lights ever and changed oil with only a number 5 plug misfire early on when i bought it in 2021. On 2nd day i was told it was warer pump too so he had t do the work order given frst of 1100. After seeing car on 3rd day clse ro mid afternon i got frusrrated knowing i was nt going t get it eve folwing day. An still only got an estimare with parts list no numbers for parts like requested or details on how other related parts looked he assured me it would be ready but it was a big job. Low n behold 3 rd day i gor call it was ready and he was going to test drive it. Later he callex said he wanted me my ghy t cone tommorrow to dscuss a problem he ad with car i was instantly anxety riden and said just tel me whats gong on with car. He said ge was driving it and it made no noise but oil light came on instantly an it shut off. He said he tried it again check engne lighr was om and it started died on spot i said dnt keep tryibg to start it you wil damage it. He said be patiebt an give him tinw to get it back to shop and wlll call his brother. He called said he was bacm at shop and hes sure engine went. I was upser an around corner an was coming over. He said im not at shop. I said y just said you were. Following day we needed a car estimaes exchanged but was ignired on requests to look under hood. Evertually keaving witb owners newer subaru instead of rental with undserstanding he would take care of car becuz it was in his posession when engine failed. Denied any stored codes at any point especially after engine blew. After xmas he called me to go over hm finding an engine i didnt think to ask what kind of warrenty but ended up being 90 day however upon returning vehicle paying 1200 no info written where purchased from and warrenty notes written in as 90 days from time he purchased nit 11 days later when i got to drive home with my car. It overheated on hill coming home 2 weeks later went back inro shp after oem thermistate was ordered from dealer . Not to mention off brand he went for faled n thermistate and water pump was same brand too. Each time my cars went int shop i find thngs ike my horn hangng damaging radiator and il cooling delicate fins liise or missing bolts an lush oins as well as loose ground wires too. Mostly id like to know yr thougts and ask why would my engne oil dipstick be so tightly fitted under housing tube from airr filter housing making it crunced under it and the next tine it be okay centered where it shoud be and last time hise from l shapex boot off side of air filter housing so close and tightly above oil filler cap i cant take it off unless hose comez off. Incidently my other engine he had us look at to show difference ibside an my old engine had metal shavingz kf good size at bottom and sparky shavngs everywhere and still denies seeing any codes or hearinv any noise and air flter so coated with coolant and never did they think to change.
great information, thanks.

what about oil pressure light going out when driving but coming on when in idle or at a stop? Once accelerating the light goes out. (Nissan Maxima)
Thanks Dude!
Thanks for watching. Remember to thumbs up the video and subscribe to the channel, thanks
Thank you.
When I went to pull it out it was so old that only the square head and a small piece of the shaft came out, the rest of the shaft is still in there.
So I still got that annoying bing from the oil light.
Question: if it is just causing my oil light to come on periodically bing, can I drive it until I can figure out how to get the rest of that shaft out of there.
It is an extremely difficult position to reach and I'm not looking forward to doing it again. Thank you so much for this video. Looking forward to your answer.
_I like you! You did a really great job teaching me about the PT Cruiser. Any tips on fixing oil light for 2002 Chrysler 300M?_
Well thank you my friend, can you like the channel enough to consider subscribing to it? thanks. Now, what size engine in this 300M?
Thanks for the light in my tunnel God bless brother
Thanks for watching Ron, please remember to thumbs up the vid and sub the channel so the video would spread. Thanks bud
Well, well, maybe my 2006 Hyundai Elantra SX, has same problem, that pesky flickering oil light at hot idle.
I replace, oil sender unit, oil pump, and big end bearing shells and main bearing shells, and crankshaft thrust washers. Also all Conrod and main bearing cap bolts.
That pesky flickering oil light at hot idle, still lingers.
Well I will check the oil sender connector like here to see if it can breathe.
Great share! 👍
real MVP solved light by just removing plastic piece without having to replace anything!!!!
lol, that connector can breath now...Thanks for watching bud. Thumbs up the vid and sub the channel for me, thanks
You seem like the right guy to ask. My sons 2002 Nissan Xterra V6. He got it to start it to go to school and oil pressure light was on. The next day I pulled it into the garage no funny noises oil level is clean and where it should be got a new sending unit from AutoZone took the old unit out which looked to be original with the vehicle put the new one and hooked it back up turn the car back on oil light is still on. But it is very dim on the dashboard not like when I turn on the accessory mode it’s very bright. I checked the connector make sure it was all clean it was no oil residue on it. I did a multi meter test on the old unit and there was no continuity between the one pin at the top and the body of the unit. I tested another new switch that I purchased separately and that one has continuity. I have not had a chance to check the one that I installed from AutoZone yet. Any thoughts I feel like it’s something simple that I missing. But my test confirm that the old switch was bad but after I installed the new one from AutoZone it still did not turn the light off
Thanks
brilliant
On what years would this be I have a srt4 neon where the light would turn on them off??
Thank you for your video's they are always so helpful.
Thanks mane i wanna learn all them secrets 😁
our neighbor has an issue with hers gonna fix it, thanks for this video, just gotta look for the neon green connector
u da man
Thanks for watching. Remember to thumbs up and subscribe to the channel, thanks
Did watch another one and obviously do it from the bottom and pressure from oil pressure obviously--but removing the pin thing??? Why would it not leak oil then???? Thanks
Hey Jt question about the oil pressure plug Does the 2006 5.7 hemi have that same setup My 4.7Durango did fixed that one Little harder to see on the hemi
No the hemi use an oil temp sensor and a different oil pressure switch
So glad I found this video and was introduced to your channel. My question is do you believe I could be having the same issue with my 2008 Dodge Caliber? Not sure if they will notify me if you reply to my question so I'll definitely be checking back with you!!! Damn, I wish I had found your channel before selling my 08 PT, I loved that car but it definitely has a lot of problems your knowledge could have helped me on
I forgot to mention, I love your no bullshit approach!! Straight up from the get go.
Whats going on Kent. If this Caliber use the same connector as that in the video then yes, this would apply. A new updated sending unit and the connector plug removed should do it. Thanks for watching
Get out. Wow that's one heck of a tip. Very interesting fix. Great video JT! 👍👍
do the oil pumps often fail in 2012 jeep wranglers ive got that p0520 code that says sensor or switch but dont have any problems with low oil or engine knock or tick im getting oil up to the filter i checked so will it hurt to drive it for now untill i replace it
I have yet to do one on a Wranglers. This typically a sensor problem. You should be find until you get it replace. The main thing is to make sure you not riding around with low oil level. Thanks for watching, please thumbs up the video and subscribe to the channel, thanks
Does the 2010 Chevy Cobalt have that breathing tab? I'm having issues with my oil light on too.
No, different set up bud. Thanks for watching. Remember to thumbs up the video and subscribe to the channel, thanks
Hey i Have this same problem in my 07 tahoe. I need to know what i need to do it’s so annoying please help.
Is it the same procedure on a 64 impala with a 283 small block? My lights coming on at stops
thank for the inf my ford explore the light come on them i hit the gas and the light turn off even i put a new oil pressure sensor
I have this problem on my 2011 chevy impala lt. Will this hack work on my car?
Mr PT. I have an oil leak that is so bad you lose about a qt every 5 miles
I have replaced the cam sensor seal and the valve cover gasket no more issues there. you would think that losing that much oil you'd see it. it appears to be somewhere on the passenger side rear of the motor. does this engine have an external oil pump or could it be a crank seal
I have learned a lot about this car from you videos. im hoping you have some advice' Thanks
What year is the PT? Also are you subscribed to the channel?
