Oil Pressure Sensor Filter

The oil pressure sensor is an essential device that calculates the amount of oil pressure on an engine. The oil pressure filter sensor is designed to keep any dirt or debris from reaching the sensor.

Oil pressure filter sensor importance

An oil pressure sensor is a vital tool because it actuates a warning light that lets you know that the engine's oil pressure is not acceptable. The sensor can typically be found in the cylinder block next to the oil filter. The oil pressure filter sensor has the role of protecting the active fuel management (AFM) system. The oil pressure filter must remain in good working order to prevent the filter from getting clogged and stop the oil from reaching the sensor.

Common problems with a faulty oil pressure filter sensor

A defective oil pressure filter can lead to low oil pressure, engine damage, or clogging.
