    Default Oil pressure sensor

    Yesterday I had a check engine light come on and the code that I got is PO502 which according to the shop manual is "oil pressure sensor circuit malfunction". I checked with my dealer and it is covered under the extended warranty, but of course it will cost me the $50 deductible. The part itself is about $11. My question is I don't know how big of a job it would be to change it myself and I don't know where it is even. Can any one advise me about installing this sensor? Thanks!!

    It's on the lower right side of the motor and it's not too bad to get to.

    Very simple.. replaced a couple of them.

    Spyder #1 - 2008 GS SM5 Premier Edition #1977. RIP after 80,000 miles.
    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    Default Oil sending unit

    Be sure to put the washer on the new sending unit. Don't ask how I know.
