Oil Pressure Solenoid

Has anyone picked one of these up? Looks like it comes with a cap that prevents a CEL

This would be huge if it works for everyone that's not tuned

Yeah, that would be great. This was my solution for the time being.

Yep, same thing here since January, no issues so far.

how hard is this to reach? I have the block off but I had heard it's in a tight area.

Manual transmission car it is open, two bolts and remove, install blockoff. Auto has an oil cooler in the way, easiest to unbolt and hold that aside while removing the solenoid.

Like @2Cool said, pretty simple job. Really simple on the manual.

I posted about it here: https://www.nissanzclub.com/forum/threads/oil-solenoid-and-p06da-anyone-have-a-pic.9571/post-173564

You can just buy a cheap solenoid from ebay and remove the coil from it to use to stop the CEL. The removed coil is a light, compact sealed plastic ring with a convenient hole through the middle to zip tie it somewhere. alternatively, if you are dead set on never using it again, and have a block-off plate, you could disassemble your stock solenoid.

You get this once diassembled:

I recently did. Was good for one day. Threw a check engine light and the code was the oil solenoid malfunction. I ended up just put a rubber hose with a cap over the stock solenoid and zip tied to the bracket. So far so good. The disappointing part was I email Jraccessories and never received any reply.

Is this something that can disabled like the ASE noise maker?

Yes, but It's an emissions related CEL, so you'll need a flash, something like ECUTEK can disable it. The tuner I called wouldn't do it because it's an emissions defeat.

I can’t believe Nissan engineers didn’t have that fail in the open position. It would be nice see the on off on a scanner. Would you know what it’s abbreviated symbol comes up as?
