oil pressure sensor crapped out again!

  I can't believe this, that damn oil pressure sensor I just replaced last week crapped out on me already. I was driving it yesterday and noticed by the gage that it was only reading 10 PSI. (that aint right) Thought it might just be a bad connection so I looked. Nope, Sensor crapped out. I tested it by putting in the old sensor back in (you know, the one that was leaking) and my pressure on the gage shot right up to normal. So I know it's the sensor. Problem is that I'm sure that carquest isn't going to take a return on it because it's an electrical sensor component so I'm out 40 bucks!!!
I'm so mad!

I'd take it back and demand a new one.

Well I jsut got off the phone with Carquest. They said there customer relations are more important than the rules with electrical sensor parts....(good boys)
They agree'd that funtioning less that a week on that sensor was inexcusable.
They said bring it in on Monday and they will swap it for a replacement right away.

Cool people. Now thats they way you run a business.

I thought I had the same problem when I was driving to a show this morning.  Looking down and seeing NO oil pressure is rather alarming.  The wire had just come off the connector.  There is a God!.   Bob
