i'm talking about the electrical plug that goes in the oil pan by the drain plug. mine is started to leak. i see in the FAQ that its called an "oil pressure sending unit". I called my local dealer and they have no idea what i'm talking about. Does anybody know the part number? Also in the FAQ it saids not to use OEM for this part. Are there other recommendations on which to choose, OEM or Napa?

Another question, can somebody tell me where is the cheapest place for OEM nissan parts? I used to buy from Courtesy Parts a lot, but looks like EverythingNissan has lower prices listed. However I haven't went thru with checkout so I don't know how much shipping is.

Thanks!

is this the oil pressure unit i'm looking for?

 

I think they call it a oil pressure sender, I got mine from Napa for like 8 bucks

can somebody please verify for me that this is the part that goes into oil pan? i was at my local nissan parts at lunch today and the parts manager told me that is goes into the block. i asked him to show me the parts diagram for the oil pan and sure enough i don't see this oil pressure sending unit...please help. thanks

 

Sending unit screws into the upper oil pan, yes.

 

ah the upper pan...thank you, I didn't look close enough. I thought it goes into the lower pan. No wonder I was confusing the parts manager.
