How can I troubleshoot and fix a P0520 code indicating an oil pressure sensor issue in my truck?

I checked my daughter’s Trailhawk using diagnostics and found a P0520 code.

The description says the oil pressure sensor is not working in the normal range.

When the engine is idling, the oil pressure was 260 kPa or 38 psi. Is this too high, too low, or normal?

When idling, an oil pressure of 260 kPa or 38 psi is a bit higher than usual. Since you’re also seeing a P0520 code related to the oil pressure sensor, it’s best to have a mechanic check it out. They’ll ensure everything’s functioning properly and determine if the sensor needs replacing or if there’s another issue to address.

Don’t worry; checking the oil pressure is something that’s done all the time. The price shouldn’t be too high.
