I have a 2007 HEMI RAM. A cpl mnths ago my tow/haul and over drive started turning on and off as im driving. Then a cpl weeks ago, I started getting and audible tone and check gauges alert when I make a sharp turn or come to an abrupt stop. Now about a week ago,my check engine light came on. Took it to O'REILY today and code reader says its and oil pressure issue. So, I replace my oil pressure switch/sensor. A cpl hours later, check engine light comes back on! Went back to O'REILY and the code reader says the same thing! WTH! Anybody have an idea?

Did you check to see if you actually have oil pressure? Also not uncommon, unfortunately to get bad (NIB) parts.

How about bad wiring from the pressure sensor to the PCM ?

When the CEL comes on I would find a way to get a reading from both the sensor and the PCM side of the harness.

You can also make sure all your grounds are good.
