For all versions of the Ford Escape, the oil pressure switch can be found at the rear of the engine compartment. Start by lifting the hood and checking behind the engine. It will be situated at the back of the engine block and securely bolted on, so make sure not to overlook it. As it is wired electrically, disconnecting the battery is advisable before attempting to remove or replace it. A new sensor will typically range from $20 to $50, depending on whether it is an original manufacturer part or an aftermarket option.
Typically, the oil pressure sensor can be found near the oil filter, often situated behind the AC compressor on many Ford Escape models.
The oil pressure sensor on a Ford Escape is positioned at the upper rear part of the engine compartment, attached to the engine block with a bolt and linked to the vehicle's computer/electrical system through a wiring clip.
