WOW, I just put in a ebay sensor and oil pressure was low and light came on also. I was in panic mode for like 4 hours until i seen you got screwed with 2 crapy sensors also. Thank you for posting

Thank you for being detailed.

Teflon added backwards. Need to put on clockwise

Same here, had same issue, saw your video. Fix it. Helpful video. Thumbs up

Hope this is my problem. Dealing with this exact scenario right now. Thanks for the video to give me hope.

The first sensor was correct. Nissan changed the sensor so it will always show mid range pressure. In other words dealers were tired of getting owners complains about the low pressure level and Nissan made a dummy pressure gauge to stop the complains.

Felicidades por tu video y paciencia en tu demostración y enseñanza Muy util tu información

the moral of the story is if your sensor is dirty clean it first before you attempt to remove- unless you like getting dirt back in your engine

No need to add oil to the filter. I also changed my oil pressure sensor but you can crack the oil pan unless you torque it right according to the specs

I just bought a 06 pathfinder v6 today with the same issue, I'm hoping that's all it is, i wasn't sure where to find the sending unit. But now I do!!! Your video was incredibly helpful. THANK YOU. a mile from getting it home from the dealership the check engine light came on. I was planning on pickup up a sending unit on my way home anyway, so I swung by the Zone, and pulled the codes. Completely unrelated. p0420 p0430 for both cats, and p-(12)?--11, timing issue, camshaft. Shady dealer. He even mentioned disconnecting the battery to reset the light when I asked him about the Oil Pressure being pegged at High.. DEAD GIVEAWAY, but I missed that flag. Least to say, I was PISSED when I pulled the codes. How can I tell if I only need to replace the O2 sensors, vs both cats, or are there four? What are your thoughts?

I think the first sensor was good they are made to fluctuate with RPMS, the oil pump is mechanical not electric so it is driven by the engine that is why it changes with higher RPMS.

Good video. ALL of the mechanic repair videos I have seen, No one has a hands free camera device (gopro etc.) I would like to see the full un-cut repair. No offense, I like your repair video. Thanks for sharing.

That last bit was great.

Amazing phone filter btw lol the easiest way to never have something go wrong is to never do something lol but life ia a adventure and we need to do things for our self!! Here's to you fellow bloody knuckle wrench turners!!

Note. the 05's had a gauge that showed the exact pressure. so it fluctuated. I.e. , when at idle the needle would drop and then pick up when the rpm's were raised. They changed it to a fixed gauge in 06 or 07. So, if you have the earlier model, the needle will drop down a good ways at idle, this is normal. But, if it gets too low the oil light will come on.

I bought two cheaper sensors for 2006 pathfinder and because I thought me oil galley gaskets were bad I spent 1000 dollars replacing them. Still didn't fix it, all it was was a bad oil sensor, make sure you replace me year and exact match because each year is different

Thanks brother

Very nice video. Thanks 😊

Do you need to drain the oil if you’re only replacing the sensor pressor?

Hi I have a 06 pathfinder preassure was fine all of a sudden when hot needle started to drop and go up been like that for about 2 years now. I change the oil every 5000km. When accelerating normal pressure when at idle dropped. Today it started dropping lower and oil light would come on for a sec or 2 then off when going again. No leaks noticed under the truck. Any advice? Weather is also hotter than usual about 38 degrees Celsius. Could it be oil screen clog?

Did you end up not going with Teflon tape and the gasket maker, and also the spec sheet said 4-1/2 on the oil?

Can I reemplace the oil pressure sensor without changing the oil

Did the faulty sensor/switch ever cause the "service engine soon" light to come on? I have an SES light that I've cleared twice and continues to return, wondering if my faulty sensor (marks high pressure) is the cause of it. Replacing the sensor tomorrow, so hoping that's the issue.

Does a oil shindig unit cause a light to come on.

Does a oil shindig unit cause a light on.

Thanks for the times!

I did the same thing, bought 3 different Faulty sensors, spent 1000 dollars on new timing gaskets, still didn't fix the oil pressure and then got the correct sensor which I bought to match my 2006 model year and its been fine since last summer. What a headache, nissan sucka

having the same issue. bought What I thought was a genuine part off EBAy and it reads low.

Yo tengo el mismo problema con mi Nissan frontier 2006

Do you have to drain the oil to replace the oil pressure gauge sensor or can you only replace the sensor and have a normal amount of oil leakage like you experienced

I bough one for my Nissan fronteir 2006 I pay $90 something auto zone and went the truck is in park or neutral it stay down went I press gas it go up you think is normal to?

My pathfinder has a similar issue - but it fluctuates depending on idle ... might it be the same problem?

Having this issue along with burning oil, could be cause by sensor ?

$110!! WTF! I just bought one for my 08 Infiniti g35, and it was $25 at the dealer

Smh ebay got another one!!

It's not even hot yet let it warm up completely it will drop and oil will come on

Full gasoline tank....😳

I stay away from eBay parts they are fake. I had bad experience. Atleast you can return fake parts to auto zone if u buy from them
