Engine Oil Pressure Sensor
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Jaguar XF, 2014 Jaguar XF, and 2013 Jaguar XF. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The oil pressure sensor is located in a threaded port in the oil filter adaptor. The sensor contacts are closed and ground an input from the ECM when insufficient oil pressure is present or the engine is not running. The sensor contacts are open at a minimum engine oil pressure of 0.15 to 0.41 bar (2.2 to 5.9 Psi).
The oil pressure sensor is connected directly to the ECM. The ECM outputs the engine oil pressure state on the high speed CAN bus for use by the IC. This message informs the IC if the switch is open or closed. The IC then turns the warning light on or off accordingly.
