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.

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.

It is very possible that it’s the same fix, it might also be another type of vacuum leak. If it’s only when you turn left that tells me you have a split in the vacuum hose going to your hub, and when you turn it’s forcing the split apart. I would turn your wheel to the left and then check the hoses coming out of your hub all the way up into your engine bay.

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.
