Re: Grand Cherokee oil level sending unit???
Are you sure it is the oil level sensor? There was a service bulletin
on the '93 V8 for this problem. The original fix was to change the
level sensor, but it didn't help. The solution was to change the oil
level to 5-1/2 qts instead of 5. They also had a modified dipstick
showing the new setting, but you could do it with a file on the old
one. The sensor for both the V-8 and I-6 is in the side of the oil
pan on the passenger side.

It's basically a switch, cleaning the connector always works for me.
If you need schematics on anything let me know. Some I have scanned.
