Technical Oil Pressure Sensor

[MrsColumbo]

Hi, we have a Motorhome on a Ducato 2.3 68 plate.
Serviced every year including full oil change.
The amber triangle light is on. Garage hooked it up to their computer and confirmed oil pressure sensor and cleared the fault but light came back on after driving it a couple of times. They ordered a replacement sensor and was going to do it this morning however when they have come to do the job they are saying because of the location they will have have to lift the engine and going to cost £1000. In their opinion just leave it but then how do I get it through MOT with camber light on
Anyone else had such an experience and can advise please. Thank you

Have fault double checked, as I have heard of faulty instrument panel giving that error. May still not be cheap, but if engine lifted and fault still there????
No guarantee but may be worth inquiring into on Fiat Ducato.

The oil pressure sensor is located behind the starter motor, probably an hours work.

Is it oil pressure or oil level sensor, if OP said the garage wanted to take the engine out?
All sounded a bit strange.

Apologies my mistake oil level sensor

I think that is what I heard mentioned relating to the circuit board behind instrument panel, but needs verifying.
