Hi,

The oïl pressure dash board light does not light up on my 69 Cutlass.

Before embarking in trying to replace the bulb (which means removing the dashboard ?), I want to make sure that the oïl pressure sensor works but I can't find it.

Do you know where it is located ?

Regards

Locate the oil fill tube on the front of the engine. Note that it is pressed into a small "shelf" above the water pump. The oil pressure sensor is on the other side (driver's side of the engine) of this "shelf" with a single wire going to it.

Here's a simple test. With the key in the RUN position, ground the wire that goes to the oil pressure switch. If the light comes on, the sender is bad.
