2008 Trooper Oil Pressure sensor look like Renegade

[Neil Wilson]

I bought a new oil pressure sending unit for my 2008 Trooper T2 (see first picture attached). When I went to install it I found out the sensor on my machine looks like the sensor for a Renegade (see second picture attached). Has anyone ever seen this? I know this is not a retro fit since because the threaded tube that connects it to the engine is a much smaller diameter than the stock part.

What is the proper part number for the unit so I can get a replacement?

The first image is for CARS that use the Chery engine.  They are wired for the warning light only.

 

Amazon has a VDO 360 025 Oil Pressure Sending has a range of 0-150 psi.  If your gauge goes from 0-150 psi, this is the one that should work.  It will operate the analog gauge and warning light.

Strange. The part number in the parts manual is for the first one.

How did you find the Amazon part? Is there a part number for the Chery engine? I would rather buy one from China since parts are usually are about 5-10x cheaper.

Anyway I appreciate your help on the forum Dan.

I went to Amazon and searched for "VDO Oil Pressure Sending Unit".  This one is used for gauges that displays pressures from 0-150psi.  I don't have a parts manual so I can't compare them.  Amazon does list one from China but it's not available and they don't know if or when it will become available again.  After further searching, I found others on Amazon for around $20.  It's for a diesel generator but the specs and brand are the same as for the one I showed you.  They are VDO brands but don't carry the VDO part numbers.

I saw a few at that price as well so no need to get one from China. Thank you for the help.
