I keep on forgetting when I do the oil change. :(

I do know it's a pressure sensor and current is sent through
it to ground and road salt/grime will cause a low-level
warning. That indicates it could report level information but
I doubt it is used that way, just a threashold circuit.

That's the unit. It feeds both via the data bus.

I have the manual ac on mine so taking pictures doesn't help and the
shop manual is not friendly.
