Default Brake oil pressure sensor
I'm gaving a hard time trying to take off the brake oil pressure sensor in my 01 coupe.I used a long socket with no luck.Has any body changed one?

The oil pressure sensor is at the back of the block, I think the picture you took is not near there

stop what you are doing! You are trying to remove the wrong part! The oil pressure sensor is behind the intake manifold.

Never heard or seen anyone that had one fail. If you loose fluid out of the ABS module you may have to have the dealer bleed it.

I have the new part ready to install.Hopefully I can swap them fast enough so that doesn't happen.
