Where is oil pressure switch located on a 1997 Chevrolet Silverado pickup with 5.7 v8 engine?

The oil pressure switch on a 1997 Chevrolet Silverado 5.7L V8 is typically located on the driver's side of the engine block, near the oil filter. However, the exact location can vary slightly depending on the specific engine configuration.

To be certain, you should:

1. Consult a repair manual: A Haynes or Chilton repair manual specific to your 1997 Chevy Silverado 5.7L will have a diagram showing the exact location of the oil pressure switch.

2. Use a parts diagram: Many online auto parts stores (like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, etc.) allow you to look up parts diagrams for your specific vehicle. Entering your year, make, model, and engine will show a diagram that identifies the oil pressure switch.

Without a visual reference, giving a precise location is unreliable as even minor variations in the engine setup can change its position. Using the resources above is the most accurate way to locate it.
