I am so glad I am not alone in this "mess." Oil was pouring out of ours tonight. Lol!! Truly appreciate your video!!!!
;D
Dude my 240 was leaking so damn bad last night.
Hey Nathan! Hello from just outside New Orleans. Thanks for this video. This country girl is going to get this done today thanks to your great instructions. Laissez le bon temps rouler!
Nice@!
Dude your a life saver mines been leaking bad and I got under it saw it was the oil pressure switch. I’m not really good with car stuff but you made this simple by showing where you put your hand through! 🤘
Thanks! One of the first things I need to do, on my '06. Oil pressure gauge is pegged at high end and oil drips on garage floor. Wish me luck! SW Florida.
Nice!!
Thanks man !!! I was chasing this down for a week
Nice!
Thanks for the video! This was a thorough how to. Glad you held onto the camera! Watching from Texas.
Sweet!!
Good video! Thanks for taking the time to make it
;D
Keep making videos you are pretty good you know what you doing that helped me a lot before taking it to the costly repair shop
I have a neighbor, might be the same dog, I will have my drain pan ready, thanks for the help, I'm working on a Colorado 4x4 too! Brakes, rear axle seals, shocks. I think the Trailblazer got 🤔 jealous? Haha 😄
Hey Nathan the birds/dogs don't bother me and I doubt they bother anyone else. Once again an informative video Thanks
Thank you so much for this informative video. Replaced this part my 2005 TB today in under an hour.
Nice!!
Take the big shield away and go up through the bottom..like you do when you change your oil filter!!👍👍
Thanks for the vid, I'm waiting anothe 1000 miles till time for an oil change to do mine.
Nice!!
Thanks for putting this video up Nathan! It is a pain to get to but not too bad if you have the ramps and the proper deep socket or you could just do what I did...it was super easy I dropped it off at my mechanics shop to do it!! LOL Just picked it up now have fresh oil, filter and oil sending unit. This fixed the low oil pressure warning when car is at idle plus the warning to shut off engine. We also ran an engine flush just in case. An hour driving on it after repair and voila oil gauge steady. I'm in SoCal. Keep up the good job on the videos, and even though I didn't work on it(this time) I do know where my engine oil filter is so please ignore Mr. Geiser who needs a snickers! Made me laugh!
Great!
Im watching you videos from NY. Thank you brother for 🙏 🙌 putting in this video saves me money at the time im broke Thanks again .!!🙏✌👍
I have a 2005 Chevy trailblazer LT and I think that might be the same problem when I get off work today I'm going to look and see if that is the problem if it is thank you you saved me a lot of problem and a lot of money
O my! Happy fixing~!
You sir are heaven sent
THANKS A LOT JUST WHAT WAS LOOKING FOR
Nice!!
Me too!
i guess it is pretty off topic but does anybody know a good website to stream new tv shows online?
@Alejandro Wesson Lately I have been using FlixZone. Just google for it :)
@Royal Kian Yup, I've been watching on FlixZone for years myself :D
Thanks that is what mine is doing now I know what to do to fix mine
Nice!
Hello from Denver Colorado! The video was very helpful and it looks like a really easy fix. My trailblazer just started last week after the engine is fully warm I'll come to a stop and the oil pressure light comes on and the gauge drops from 40 to 0 and will fluctuate back and forth. But as long as i keep the idle up it'll stay at 40 lol. Plus I have noticed a lot of fresh oil underneath so yeah, I'm certain it's the same problem as you had. Thanks again.
Nice!
Thanks
Good fix
Thank you for the video
Half to replace mine.
thank you, doing it soon.
Yes!!
Hey thanks a lot your video helped out and I'm watching from Brighton,Colorado
Nice!!
Thanks just got mine done
Yea!!
I just replaced this sensor this morning on the wife's '06 Trailblazer with the 4.2 I6 engine. It's been leaking for a couple for weeks and showing low pressure on the "gauge", which in actuality is nothing more than a glorified idiot light. It doesn't actually show pressure. It's an on-off switch.When it's on the gauge reads 40 or so, when it's off it reads 0. False advertising on GM's part.
Anyway, I did this as part of an oil change. Once the filter is off it's easy to get to the sensor from underneath. I used a 1-1/16" deep socket and a flex head 1/2" drive ratchet. A fixed head ratchet hit the frame and wouldn't allow the socket to turn. A stubby ratchet would probably work, too. It's not too bad a job, really. The ratchet is needed just to break it loose and to snug it up again, the rest you can do by hand.
Will a 27 mm ratchet wrench fit in the small space
What about the tiny screen that is inside the sensor housing? GM says to replace it whenever you change the sensor?
Thanks very helpful
Thanks for the video brother
Me to brother i put off alot and know in a bind ..thanx alot
I know the video is published in 2019 but according to what the oil looks like you need an oil change 3,000 miles before you did this video but on the other hand thanks for the information and are 2005 inline 6 started doing this the other night and it scared the crap out of my wife
Thanks!!! Just what I wanted to know.
Thanks bro!
thank you i will get this done soon my gauge is not working right
Nice!!
Very helpful video. Thanks!
Keep pushing the videos
Nathan, thanks great video and follow your instruction. The point is that after replace the sensor, problem still exist. I change the oil, no engine noise when the pressure is low at itle only, the oil level is normal, what could be?
My car all of a sudden 03 trailblazer ext 4.2l started with the low oil pressure stop engine deal a week or two after an oil change, hopefully this works.
You should edit the description or title to include what engine you have. That’s kind of important lol nice video
Nice !
You gonna be doing a valve cover anytime soon ? I know mine can’t be the only one that leaks into my spark plug holes lol I hear the bolt on the valve is the biggest pain I’m just waiting on you now lol
juiced71 hahaha just did plugs and was real suspicious about the oil on the plugs
Had that same problem a couple years ago in my 02 and the bolts for the 2 misfiring cylinders snapped. Ended up having to take it to my mechanic
When that oil started flowing out I was like when was the last time he changed the oil. Starts vehicle change engine oil soon warning in cluster. I refuse to wait for that to come on. Every 3k it is changed, afterwards before starting vehicle always reset the oil monitoring system by turning key to run do not start press accelerator pedal 3 times to floor within 5 sec. to reset system.
sweet man thanks
Question sir. It is normal to see the oil light right after starting the engine staying on for about 6 to 10 seconds before going out?
I think mine is leaking, different vehicle though. I do appreciate how difficult they make these things to get to :/
My fuel gauge goes up and down. I have been stranded cause of no gas. How do I fix?
I replaced this part and my VVT solenoid and still having some uses when my oil percent reaches 50% my oil gauge keeps going crazy what can it be.
Hello I have a 05 envoy xl my oil gauge is all the way at 80 when the engine is running. when it’s off it sits at 40 should I change the pressure sensor for it? I recently replaced the vvt solenoid for a p00014 code
Bad interment gauge cluster
Question, when that sensor is leaking would it cause it to get oil all over the steering fluid pan & surroundings? Because I’m not sure if that’s the part I’m looking for or if it’s my oil pan. I haven’t actually crawled under and inspected but from above I see no cracks however it leaks in my driveway a lot, oil pressure doesn’t seem to change on the gauge, and there’s oil in upper areas
Yep. Wind blows it up there because that's an area of low pressure when driving.
Sweet thank you I appreciate it. I detailed the engine too, and seen it after asking lol double confirmation!
Is the sending unit located right below the dipstick? When i look from the top i see where oil has ran to the bottom of the car. Haven't had a look under my car yet but just want an idea when I do.
Yep.
Will this make the oil run along under the whole vehicle? I woke up and there is oil everywhere under my car. Running down the body frames. Its everywhere. My wheels are flinging it. I'm going to take it to a car wash and then get under the car and try to pinpoint it out. Its so hard to tell with the oil literally on everything.
Its possible.
This sounds exactly like what mine did this morning it looked like an oil murder scene
Do you have any videos on gauge readings? Nun of my gauges on the right work but my mph and rpms do.
Josey Johnson stepper motors probably. You can get an obd2 plug in display off amazon for $70 or take the cluster off and send it in to get fixed
Does it have an o ring if not would it hurt to put one on?
Yeeeaaa.....
What it a deep 27 mm socket or regular
Kinda sounds like you got a slight vacuum leak somewhere.
I just started my 2007 Chevy trailblazer this morning and immediately oil came spilling out the bottom of the engine lost almost 6 quarts is the oil sending unit the cause?
Read comments below.
@@FixingWithPassion I never received the response to my question. I read through every comment. Could you please let me know if the sending unit went bad if it will leak all that oil in a little bit of time please. Thank you
Привет из РУСИ.
What was that sensor?
Big.
Is this 4.2 or 5.3 ? I have an 04 but the oil filter faces down and the sensor is in the side.
4.2
Didn't clean the connection or change out oil sensor screen.
it might rain tomorrow
Just got an oil change last week on my 03, now it keeps telling me low oil pressure stop engine. There is enough oil, sensor does have a leak. Don't drive it?
Oil pressure gauge is working, tells me low oil pressure stop engine when I come to an abrupt stop.
It could be the oil pick up tube o ring I had the same problem and replacing the o ring fixed the problem
My gauge works....
Very little help I have no idea where on the engine this is located to proceed . Bad video , just delete, your not help and it’s too long.
lol someone need a snickers~
Look the video explains how to change the located part. No help in finding the thing . Really it’s little help
@@dillangeiser4820 If you have no idea where your oil filter is you should just take it to a shop!!!!
Guy Merkel Jr the oil pressure sending unit is different on each vehicle
Dillan Geiser it says directly in the title that he is fixing the oil sending unit on a trailblazer. All oil sending units on trailblazers are in the same location. You should probably just take your vehicle to a shop if you can’t find it. Lol he shows exactly where it’s located...
I replaced this part and my VVT solenoid and still having some uses when my oil percent reaches 50% my oil gauge keeps going crazy what can it be.
