3.6 Pentastar oil pressure sender woes.....
Ok success! The water hose is the PITA in this setup. Its a semi rigid line and you really have to get the socket in there at the correct angle before it will slide onto the sender. You need to get it close and then really crushed that hose under the extension and press the socket onto the sender until it catches. Its a 1 1/16 deep for those following at home. I got it off and replaced in about 15 minutes minus the time to take the battery out for better visibility. Found a loose negative cable clamp while i was in there. Started it, checked for leaks, code cleared when the battery came out. No more CEL. We'll see after 20 miles.
