Thank you so much man. That really clears things up. You did this on an explorer, right? It seems like there is absolutely no room.
That's why I got there trough wheel. After you remove one bolt that holds an A/C line and slide that out of way (a couple inches), you can fit your left arm with a socket wrench in there. Not comfortable, but doable.
 






Alright, I got it fixed. It was the Oil Pressure Switch like you guys told me. I went to Oreilly's and picked one up for $6. Here's pics:

The old one

I used two extensions to reach it, and used a deep well socket 1-1/16"

Thank you to everyone who helped and threw pictures in to show me exactly what I was looking at.

You were right man. I pulled that wheel off and pulled the plastic wheel well back a little, disconnected that nut that hols that line on, because theres no other way to do it, sprayed some brake cleaner in there to clean it up a little and then it was done. It's a bare to get in there, but once you figure it out it's cake. Thanks for all your help.
 






Hope that was it...
