My 2014 JKU is throwing a P0520 code so it looks like I need to replace the oil pressure sensor. Can anyone give me a feel for where to find it on the engine?

Thanks

it is on the backside of the oil filter cooler housing and it is a pain to get to.

So, I take it that's near the oil filter, right? Gotta figure they'd make it hard to get to.

Thanks.

under the oil filter housing it sits in the Vee of the motor. No easy way to get to it.

Its a common issue, let the dealer do it, it's quite an involved procedure, I think they extended the warranty on that part to 100k.

I don't think the oil pressure sensor is covered. I might be wrong but I was told sensors are strictly the 36000/3 year warranty. Now if I were doing it myself I would go ahead and change the oil filter cooling housing at the same time as it is cheap and they have had many revisions since 2012.
