Why is my oil light on in my 2004 chrystler Sebring?

The oil light came on in my 2004 Chrystler Sebring. I changed the oil to no avail. How do I check the sending unit for the light to see if that is the problem? Where is it? What are the chances of a bad oil pump or plugged oil galleries?Why is my oil light on in my 2004 chrystler Sebring?
If the light is the oil change reminder light, there is a reset procedure to follow, though some will reset on their own over time. Check your owner's manual for proper procedure. If it is the oil pressure warning light, then there is either a problem with the sending unit/wiring, or there might actually be an oil pressure problem. If you don't have the tools for checking/changing the sender a trip to the mechanic may be necessary.Why is my oil light on in my 2004 chrystler Sebring?
Did you reset the indicator after you changed the oil?Why is my oil light on in my 2004 chrystler Sebring?
You have to find the oil sending unit and screw an oil gauge into the hole to know for sure, hopefully it is the sending unit, dont drive it at all tho. You will fry the engine if its not pumping oilWhy is my oil light on in my 2004 chrystler Sebring?
if your engine is,nt knocking then it,s safe to say it,s not the oil pump. i would have to say you have a bad oil sending unit. they are usually by the oil filter. it could be bad or the wire going to it is loose or off.
