Oil light coming on usually means low oil pressure. IE: low oil, pump worn and possibly the sending unit. Before buying a new oil pressure switch you can try cleaning it by removing sender and soak lower part (that screws into engine) in parts or carb cleaner. Sometimes they stick and get gummed up.
oil sending unit, the unit screws into the block and has one wire coming out of it, if not then check the oil filter, make shure its tight,,, good luck
In my experience with neon's the sending unit is most likely not the problem. I feel that you will find that the oil pressure is actually low and that the oil pump is going out. If you change the sending unit and it doesn't change then you will know for sure. The sending unit is located on the side of the block near the oil filter. It has one wire and simply unscrews and the new one screws back in and re-attach the wire. Hope this helps. Good luck.
it is either the oil sending unit or the oil pump remove oil sending unit from the side of the block and do a manual pressure check should read atleast 30 psi if not the oil pump is bad if it does then sending unit is bad
easy to change u just need a special tool for removed on front of motor at right of oil filter its look like a coolant sensor or a little bottle with a connetor removed the connector and take the tool to remove
