"Check Oil Level" Messagejimenej 08-26-2004, 05:21 PM I have a 1993 Grand Cherokke and the information center console shows a message "Check oil level". I already change the engine oil and filter, the trany oil and filter and it did not go away. Does any one has an idea? xj31 08-26-2004, 11:13 PM it could be the oil level sensor in the oil pan. jimenej 08-27-2004, 08:56 AM Where is it located?, is it easy to change?, I would like to do it by myself. it could be the oil level sensor in the oil pan. jimenej 08-31-2004, 08:54 AM I changed the oil level sensor as suggested, but the message has not dissapear, I unplugged the battery to change the sensor. Any other suggestion?, please helpme out. ByronP 08-31-2004, 09:52 AM Do you have a oil pressure gauge? What's it reading? ByronP jimenej 08-31-2004, 10:10 AM It is reading between 60 and 80.... it never goes down... jimenej 09-07-2004, 11:00 AM Please help me to solve this. ChadEbert 09-08-2004, 12:03 AM Back to the basics, have you checked the oil level? I'd go to that, make sure it's reading the proper level on the dip stick. Secondly, if your oil pressure is that high at warm idle, that's too high. hundahunta 09-08-2004, 01:08 AM possible a sticking pressure relief valve in the pump, sludge build up in the oil galleries would all cause oil pressure level to high.. leowolf 09-08-2004, 01:58 AM There must be an open somewhere in the oil level senor circuit. trace the wires back to the computer, also just because you changed the oil doesn't mean that the level is proper, and no i dont think your an idot just make sure the oil level reads on the full mark of the dip stick. it will come on when the ol is down half of a quart. kaded19 02-21-2006, 09:53 PM I dont know if anyone is still reading this post still but I am having the same issues as to my 93 Jeep GC of the check oil level message is not going away on the message center and I have to changed the oil level sensor and changed the oil and checked it multiple times and so has a certified technician... i am curious as to what my other options are and what can be done to fix it dksob81 02-21-2006, 10:25 PM Check the wiring at the sensor. kaded19 02-21-2006, 10:28 PM Ya i have checked that and still nothing Im at a loss here as to what to do...i really dont want to have to take it to a dealership and spend more money on it...any other ideas i can try? leowolf 02-22-2006, 08:55 PM the computer will ullimatly be looking for a ground if it is one wire or 12vs if it is a 2 wire plug. If it is a one wire sensor disconnect it and see if the light goes away. then touch it to ground. if the light toggles off in either senario its not the wire. If it is a two wire sensor disconnect the plug, does it toggle? connect the wires together, does it toggle? if the light goes off in any one of these situations... the wires are good and the sensor has a problem. If it does not toggle then check the wires back to the computer, a good manual will have the pin out for the sensors. make the logic at the pin out to turn the light off. if it doesnt go out the computer is bad or there is a short, open or other physical deffect. good luck mad max 12-02-2007, 01:35 PM it could be the oil level sensor in the oil pan. I am having the same problem. How do I change it? Can I check the wiring some how first (Where is the conector plug?) Jazagod 01-12-2008, 08:30 AM yeah, mine does the same thing. I've just learned to ignore it, though the reminder beep when I throw it into drive is annoying. An easy fix would be nice though :) mad max 01-29-2008, 05:42 PM yeah, mine does the same thing.
