Oil pressure sensor

[Spyderjockey]

Yesterday I had a check engine light come on and the code that I got is PO502 which according to the shop manual is "oil pressure sensor circuit malfunction". I checked with my dealer and it is covered under the extended warranty, but of course it will cost me the $50 deductible. The part itself is about $11. My question is I don't know how big of a job it would be to change it myself and I don't know where it is even. Can any one advise me about installing this sensor? Thanks!!

It's on the lower right side of the motor and it's not too bad to get to.

Be sure to put the washer on the new sending unit. Don't ask how I know.
