Also all you got to do is to reset it. 1. turn on the ignition but don't start the engine. 2. open the hood and unplug the latch sensor . 3. go back inside the car and turn off the ignition 4. go back to hood and put back the latch sensor by plugging it back. 5. go back inside the car and start the car. Now it is a complete reset. If that doesn't work your sensor is damage and need to be replace.

Thanks a lot broo, i needed to know that !!!

@jorhamkat9999 Год назад

Let say the oil level is fine but the sensor is damaged. Will it be safe to drive the car ?

@UltraNsx25 Год назад

@@jorhamkat9999 if your sensor is damaged replace it but do not drive if u think there no oil in your engine unless u think there is oil. In some case scenario if your oil sensor is damage make sure you have oil dip stick in the side because I think having an oil dipstick is a lot accurate than the oil sensor itself. You can get oil dipstick on ebay they are not expensive.

Thanks very helpful

What if the hood is showing on the dashboard when you open it.

This is worked on my 2018 Q7 by pushing both plunge on both side of the car then go back inside the car it start to read the oil level.

@niyazsagir6867 Месяц назад

Hi, I have same problem on Audi Q7 2018. MMI shows reduce oil level. I have just serviced car and put in less oil. The MMi showing same fault. Can you explain what you did.

@alieubakarr1730 2 месяца назад

How to jump the switch? What to use?

@EuropeanAutoRepair 2 месяца назад

You could probably use a paper clip or jumper wire, I use a noid light that you would use for testing a injector pulse at a old port injector

@grantbradley5084 2 года назад

Easier fix. Buy a dipstick through Amazon. Problem solved. I got tired of waiting for the MMI to register on my 2012 A4.

What do I do if I can’t unplug the hood latch connector it’s too hard unplug it with my fingers any tools I can use to unplug it easier?

@EuropeanAutoRepair 5 месяцев назад

Sometimes using a small 90 degree pick and lifting the little latch that retains the connector is a good way to do it, next time you try doing it with your hands push the connector together before you pull back on the latch

@curtisdugan22 9 месяцев назад

Mine is coming up ( drain oil off ) and no it not too much oil in it , I've tried reseting oil level plus checking the switch on the hood , take it this mean the oil level sensor is not working

@EuropeanAutoRepair 9 месяцев назад

Probably, with the hood open does the instrument cluster show the hood as being open?

@FYEGLOBAL_ 2 года назад

The information cluster says the hood open n closes but it still request oil it says only a quart but I put a quart and it still says add a quart

@EuropeanAutoRepair 2 года назад

It might be a defective level sensor. Just to be sure you might want to buy a dipstick off a 2012 vw gti and that will work on your car if it's a 2.0tfsi

@cristicristi9109 2 года назад

Can you please explain me the part with "jump this 2 pins out", as i bought the car without the hood latch as it as hood pins and it is not connected at all. Thank you

@EuropeanAutoRepair 2 года назад

You just need to use something to connect the 2 pins on the hood latch plug.

@davidminor6537 Год назад

I had the issue of a low oil level warning following an oil change at the dealership. There was no issue with engine temperature during vehicle operation, so I surmised that it wasn't legit. Found a reference online that it was associated with the hood latch sensor. I opened the hood for about a minute, closed it, and started the vehicle. Problem solved.

@Deadlygangsta 8 месяцев назад

Did you ever have the issue again?

@davidminor6537 8 месяцев назад

@@Deadlygangsta only once. Again after an oil change. Told the dealer to resolve it because they had caused it. Not since then.

@Deadlygangsta 8 месяцев назад

Okay, my situation is strange. Had oil. Oil level was maximum. In 2 days, it dropped by a quarter on the screen. After 5 days, it went to minimum. Do you think this is a separate issue or also hood latch sensor issue?

@EuropeanAutoRepair 8 месяцев назад

@Deadlygangsta when you open your hood does it show your hood is open on the instrument cluster

@Deadlygangsta 8 месяцев назад

@@EuropeanAutoRepair yeah, my hood sensor is fine. Im actually worried. I used dip stick and it showed minimum just like on the screen. Then I added 1 quart of oil and then dip stick and screen showed maximum oil. That makes no sense. So after 300 miles, my oil went from max to min, then 1 quart made it max again. Strange. I dropped it off at mechanic. The car ride is smooth

@milehigh3054 Год назад

The problem is the micro hood switch is stuck closed and it's tied into the oil level sensor. Try unplugging it and use a jumper wire to show the hood was opened. Problem solved. If that's your problem, replace the switch or jumper it every time you want to check the oil level. Horrible design.

@gege5988 5 месяцев назад

Hello, I have a red oil light ("Switch off engine and check oil level"), and the car model is Audi a6 c7 (2013 2.0tdi). I changed the oil sensor, oil pump, oil and oil filter, but the light still remains on. Also the light turns on when the temp is at 90°C and the car is moving slowly. What can be the problem in my case? Thank you!

@EuropeanAutoRepair 5 месяцев назад

Does the oil level register on the screen when you shut it off hot and wait a couple minutes?

@gege5988 5 месяцев назад

@EuropeanAutoRepair Yes sometimes it says too much oil i tried to remove some but still the same.

@tor-Norge 2 года назад

On my wife’s 2016, took for oil change, did not drain properly, shop overfilled. After a couple of trips, Low oil warning. Purchased manual dip stick, checked and yes, shop had overfilled. So, a low oil warning is also triggered for overfill as there is no overfill screen. Stupid. Corrected level and no more warning.

@EuropeanAutoRepair 2 года назад

Sometimes you will get a "oil overfill please drain" message on the screen. It's not a good system, I miss dipsticks hah
