After watching every single OP sensor video I finally found the one step that every other video missed. 10/10

You are our HERO!!!! THANK YOU! I was ready to quit and throw the whole car in the trash lol. Soooo many videos on the sensor and not one single one on how to get it apart

And give this man the award of " Things you should know" Thank you!

you sir are a delight and one of the few smart guys out there to show the actual clip and its mechanism to remove .... Thanks

Dude... you are my hero! Thank you so much. I just gave up for the day and came inside. Now I know what to do tomorrow when I attack this beast again. Thank you!

You’re an absolute lifesaver for making this video. Not all heroes wear capes!

40 assholes didn't like your video.. I think this is one of the greatest videos ever made.. it shows exactly what to do and this is the part that nobody else is able to show or haven't thought about showing.. you sir are amazing and I'm eternally grateful 🙏

God bless you for sharing this video. I was 3 hours last night trying to remove the plug. I found this video and showed it to my son and in less than 5 minutes tonight he had it off.

4 hours here also 😢😢😢

Sweating it out in 100 degree heat here in AZ, after an hour messing with this 1 sensor, I gave up. Cooled off and got some lemonade, watched this video, cried a little and turned into 15 min job. Thanks a bunch.

“Did you ever know that you’re my hero”. Mate, this has been driving me nuts. You’re a bloody Legend. Cheers.

Very helpful. I'm about to change mine on my 2012 Yukon. It's essentially the same type of clip/release on many other connectors/harnesses. Having the visual will help with feeling it blindly. Thanks!

This is the connector my 2012 Sierra 5.3 had. I had been working for over an hour trying to disconnect but could not see it well enough to know how it worked. Many thanks for you post.

Bro thankyou. 40 mins of pulling every which to pop some unknown lock and I watch this video, its off on the first try. Thank you

Thanks for the much needed video. Getting the wiring harness disconnected was the toughest part of this job.

Thank You for your video, If it wasn’t for you showing me how to release the cap I still would have been at Witt’s End. Finally I was able to Fix my 2009 Chevy Suburban. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

I have owned various vehicles but back in the day, I don't recall such an idiotic place and hassle to R&R a sending unit or sensor as I did 3/4/2022 on my 2009 Chevy Avalanche. Granted I/we have taken off various clip type plugs in our past but what a freaking hassle it was to not just get to the sensor but to get the Blankeyt-blank connector off. Some users indicate removing the white clip to dislodge the connector. Others don't say how to do it short of squeezing but I literally modified the plastic in front of the sensor to see the sensor by removing material. The white clip was visible and removing it was done a half dozen times before I came inside and found your video. Bless your heart and a boon to the community for showing what you did. I will add though...in the end I had removed the white clip and left if off for tightening down the new sensor did not align as the prior one for easier access to the clip. The socket still clips in to place and will debate whether it'll dislodge or not. I or someone else can easily work on the sensor now and hopefully I can pass along similar info. Again, thanks!

dude I've been at this today for 4 maybe 6 hours no other videos clearing explain this like you do. no one else says push the tab in they all say down.... you have no idea how releived I am that I found your video and got this off. but before I found this I broke the grey tab off lol

You are a saint!!! We could get the grey clip up but for the life of us we COULD NOT figure out how to take the rest off!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 thank you!!! After watching your video it took me less than a minute, had I seen the video first it would have saved me about 45!!

howd you do it???

I want to thank you SO much for this very enlightening video! I spent an hour trying to get that thing unplugged but to no avail, and it would've NEVER come off had I not seen you show me how it's done. So easy once you know how, huh?! Lol

THANK YOU! 30 min trying to figure this damn thing out and you showed it in 2 min😊

Thank you so much!! I am no mechanic and I swear to God I was just about to screw all kinds of shit up so I owe you big time

Cannot thank you enough for taking the time to post this! Such a frustrating job but so simple at the same time.

Man you saved my afternoon......only video I found with this explanation. 🙌

Best video ever!! I’ve been fooling with this thing for 2 hours. First time changing one. Took 2 minutes after watching this video. Thank you!!!

Philip gets LEGENDARY status....I liked, and appreciate all the videos on this from other posts...but........The hardest part of the job, is the 2 step clip removal....not the sockets, or hoses.........Thank You, I spent an hour or so working through this. I didnt want to break a clip. I had the Grey "Safety Clip" pulled and did not know if I should squeeze the blue clip? Im ready to do the deal, after this post. Thank you Sir...

Add me to the list!! This was the most important part of replacing the sensor... No one else gave this very important information. In totality you have probably saved all of us over a hundred thousand dollars... This is no joke... and on a side note... I bent a tiny fishing hook and used it on a fishing line to get the screen out and it took two seconds... Once again, you are our hero in this video!!

Thank you!! 2012 Escalade oil pressure sensor replacement made possible by a little "how to" on the wire cap removal!! Unbelievable how important this part is when you can't see the darn thing! All the best

After struggling with this for almost 3 hours, and I was just about to rip the sensor out, and I Found this video, if you are ever in Montana, I owe you countless beers

Dude!!! You saved me from throwing so many tools and possibly breaking the connector. Legendary status!!!

You the man! 2hrs of failed struggle and then your video pops up and a success after 10 mins

I struggled until I watched this video. Thanks

Holy crap!! I’ve watched about 12 videos on how to do this, and this guy finally explained it!! Thank you my dude

Wow, so much searching for this video, and wasted time under that 2012 duramax LML... thanks!!

This video saved my ass. After messing with the plug for 30 minutes, I watched this and had it off in 15 seconds!!! You are the man!

'Thank you' is definitely not enough. I owe you a case of beer....or ten!!!!

Just changed mine this morning on my 2013 Sierra. I didn’t remove any hoses or anything and was able to do the job. Took everything I had to push the tab to release the connector while simultaneously push up on the bottom of the connect with a long screwdriver. Then I busted the old sensor up when my socket twisted on me. You need one universal joint and a long cheater bar for your ratchet and try to keep the socket from twisting on you. Do NOT forget to replace your filter/screen while you’re doing all this. It’s only a few bucks extra

Thank you brother for posting this. Man it's so helpful to know exactly what needs to happen. Made the disconnect super easy.

I watched over a dozen sender replacement videos and yours is the only one that explained this!! (I spent over an hour getting frustrated trying to figure this out) thanks for the clarity!!

This is the most important video on KZread for changing this sensor, my 2010 chevy tahoe has same clip. I could not have done it without the video. Thank you. After you change the sensor disconnect the battery to reset computer.

Disconnect battery...is that necessary?

Thanks for this video it helped a lot it took me 4 hours to take this off but when I seen your video in 10 min it was out

this man is doing the lords work, somebody promote him

Dude thank you so much I went through so many videos trying to find this right here

It’s been a couple years since struggling with this. This is a huge help.

I spent 40 minutes trying to figure this and could not unplug it until I found your video! Thanks!!!!!!

Thanks for the excellent video. You clarified it completely Sir. I could not get the clip off my 2011 Sierra, had to walk away from it frustrated, cause I'm not an idiot. Now I will try again soon. Hopefully now I'll be able to remove it.

Holy crap. I spent 3 hours trying to get my hands on this to get it off. And boom. I finally find this!!! Love you!

Youre my hero. That grey tab is on top with no chance of seeing it let alone how to work it.

This was by far the most useful video for this process.

Thank you, this just saved me a lot of time and trouble. I have big hands and was considering driving to repair shop. Worked perfect for 2011 yukon xl, just removed evap line, disconnected lower end of pcv hose and relocated, disconnect brake vacuum booster hose from booster and relocated it, Used 27 mm deep well socket with 4 inch extension and universal joint at top of extension, Thank you

Thank you for being descriptive!! Exactly what I needed to know.

Life saver, hard to see what you’re doing back there. Thanks his video helped out a ton, thanks!

Thank you sir for this i was struggling with mine. Glad I watched this before I broke something. Very much appreciated.

I've been struggling with this all night. Sitting under the hood. I'll try this tomorrow. Thank you!

Being that one has to do this by feel, this is way helpful. You're a bro, Dennison.

Thanks a bunch. It took me an hour to get the connector and watching this video over and over. Thanks again.

This was KILLING me!! It was the only thing that was kicking my ass! Once you showed me how to do it.... In and out just that damn fast. Thank you!!

Not possible without this piece of information. Thank you.

Thanks my man, that helps out a lot. You are the only video that gives this demonstration

I've been fitting that clip for hours.watched ur video. 2 seconds. Thank you thank you.

Thank you! I was almost ready to give up before finding your video.

thank you, i acttually broke off the gray clip and will try again tomorrow i hope its just as easy as that

This was most helpful on my 2013 gmc 1500 sierra 5.3l. Thanks!!!!

I spent DAYS TRYING to get that suckered out... and after watching your video tool me 5 minutes.. I would be paying someone if it wasn't for you. I truly deeply appreciate you. Thanks 🙏

Hi buddy!!! Thank you a lot!! You saved me, we were fighting with this lock!! Great video!

Thanks for the demo. Made all the difference for me!

life savers you guys are!.. i used a dental tool from walmart to get the filter out. worked perfect! the hardest part was getting the connector off.. just remember to squeeze the top to release after you pull the the guard up., there’s a video on the connector in the same search results :)

A 3/8" lag scew or bolt in like 4-6" length works as well. Stick down in the hole where sensor was give it a half turn or so to engage the plastic frame of filter and pull right out!

Wish I would have seen this before I started, would've saved me about 45 mins. Thanks alot, you da man!

Thank you 👍 all the way from Bakersfield California

Thank you for this. Exactly what I needed.

Most helpful video I’ve seen. Was getting ready to sell the damn truck thank!!!

I love my Silverado, but I was about to light a fire up in it, not only is the sensor in a hard to reach spot, they had to put the release clip on the side you can't reach, Thank you for the video!

Effing Patriots like you make my day! Thanks brother!

God bless you I’ve been fighting with this for an hour now

dude, thank you so so very much. it helped a lot and nobody seems cares about showing this. thanks a lot.

Thx. Definitely saved me from breaking it. I Got the retainer pulled up then decided to take a break and found this. Mine took a little more force pushing in the tab.

Hey Philip, great video! I include your video in my description of replacing a 5.3 oil pressure sensor, good job buddy.

Thank you I’ve been trying to get this off for an hour with picks and everything. This is the second time I’ve tried

Your awesome, I’ve been trying to disconnect this damn thing for the past 30 min then I seen your video and it came right out 💯👍🏾

Thank you thank you thank you to save me hours of pain after watching this video I was able to go out and get that connector right off thank you again for taking the time to do this

Awesome video. This information is always left out.

Thank you!!! Like most connectors, if you can see how they work they are easy to take apart. In the case of the 6.0 Escalade sight and ability to reach the connector is VERY limited. Your video will be a tremendous help. Thank you again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the best videos on the internet!

This is internet gold. You deserve a raise.

This makes a tough job much much easier thanks loads👍🤜🤛

Thank you thank you thank you! Lol I have not done mine just yet I’m dreading the laying on top of the motor etc but I have watched videos of the process and now I am about ready to attempt it except for the finger screen thing to pick it out or leave the old one in !

Man I just wanna say thank you so much for this video

Many , many thanks for this, was extremely helpful.

Thanks, your video helps me a lot.

Good video I’ve trying to figure out how to do it . Your a money saver

Thank you sooo much for this video!! The sensor replacement would’ve taken 15minutes had found this video 3 hrs ago!!

That was the info ineeded to get this off. Thanks!

Much needed video great thinking Philip

This video saved my day. Messed with it for 15 min

This video was a huge help. Thank you!

Helped me a lot...Most time spent on the job was trying to get the wire off with one hand without being able to see it.

Thank you for making the video. Super helpful!!!

Thank you for your troubles. I wish to make some additional comments. I used a couple of Hook picks in order to lift the clip and gently remove the clip from the connector. It takes some long and short picks to do this and lots of patents. Especially in such a small tight space. This is what worked for me and I hope this can help you as well. Good luck. Patients is the key.

Thank you some much, easy as hell, I never moved any hoses for the job

KZread, give this man a million dollars

This was the most frustrating part of the job. Luckily I gave up after 10 minutes and found this video. Then another 10 minutes I was good. The clip points were visible through the holes in my vantage point. As a note, after torquing down the new sensor, it was flipped about 180. I can't only imagine the hell the next one will be.
