  • low oil light????

    The light on the dash will pop on and sometimes it won't. I know the oil is full in the crankcase. Can someone tell me if the sensor is bad and where is it located. Also when I speed up and let off the gas the check engine light will pop on and stay on until I restart the car. I'm lost...someone please help. thanks

    sounds like maybe your throttle position sensor.

    and tho i dont know the year of your car, the oil level sensor should be on the drivers side of your oil pan (halfway down on it) , very visible once you jack the car up

      If it is TPS, i believe you have to replace the whole throttle body, the sensor is built into it.

          The TPS is on your gas pedal. And it has nothing to do with your low oil light. If you want to know why your check engine light comes on take it to autozone and have them read it with the scanner. Its free.

            TPS is in your throttle body. you have a Pedal Position Sensor on your pedal

              I tried awhile back to check problems with a scaner but it seemed like it didn't want to work.... as in it didn't spit out any flash codes. Is it possable the computor check insert under the dash is bad??? I"ll take it to auto zone and let them try to make sure.
