Low oil pressure light

[Ghoxt14]

This is the second time this light has popped up. Oil levels are fine and engine maintains running smoothly. I’m thinking to start by replacing the oil pressure switch than move from there. Anyone have a location of where it’s at? Also if you have any experience with this I would love the feedback.

Here you go, seems like a pretty easy procedure. Good luck.

Thank you so much. Where can I find Car E-manual like that?

Sorry for the delay, I thought I replied to you. I found it as a 2013 Ford Explorer Factory Workshop manual, in your case is 2014. Good luck.

Old-ish post. This happened to my 2013 as well. Swapped out the switch and hasn't come back since. Apparently the switch goes bad on these pretty regularly.
