yellow oil light help
 
Which sensor controls the yellow oil light? Is it the oil pressure sensor under the intake or is it the sensor on the oil pan next to the dipstick? Or am I way off on either?

Yellow oil light??? isn't it red?

Did you checked your oil level?

dawizone Apr 14, 2012 02:42 AM

@ GS4_Fiend oil level checked before and after every drive... @g4ebguy90 believe there is both yellow and red.... red being much more dangerous

Oil level is the one in the oil pan with wires coming off from it, tells if you oil level is low. Yellow

Oil pressuse is the red one (danger de mort) it's located behind the A/C compressor , it screws right into the block.

Thanks exactly what i thought just wanted to confirm

dawizone Apr 14, 2012 10:25 AM

hey Omar do you happen to have the part number for the oil pan sensor? is that the $300 one?

g4ebguy90 Apr 14, 2012 09:19 PM

Its just a sensor, try autozone man. Not everything has to be LEXUS dealer only. Starting to realize that now... If your oil pressure light comes on, your screwed anyways. Oil level, your not checking your engines blood enough.

^^^ yea man by no means am i an expert but i have been doing it a little while so I know that.... but look up oil level sensor at Oreillys autozone napa etc... and you will see that there is no cheap option.... if you can find one please let me know!!
