Oil coming out of a connector

[obscur156]

Hi guys

Gmc sierra 2014 All Terrain  with 5.3L with 90.000 KM , oil is coming out of the connector that goes to the oil pressure sensor solenoid valve on the timing chain cover.

Creating engine code P06DD, tested twice with cleanig both connector with brake cleaner and each time truck goes back to normal operation for about 20 minutes until oil goes back to that connector.

When cleaned, basically AFM working and no engine code.

My oil pressure is normal.

Changing that stupid wire is a freaking job maybe 10 to 12 hours for 10 dollar wire.

My question is : is there some kind of a oil resistant liquid sealant i can try to put in that connector ?

 

Some shots of what i am facing.

Thanks for your help,regards.

Needs a harness. It's not a sensor. Just a pass through for the oil pressure regulator. Nogood way to seal it. Good luck.

nothing to lose at this point, clean both connectors with brake clean. put black rtv silicone in the connector on the engine and the coat the plug with vaseline  and plug it back in. if you can give it 24 hours to cure. make sure to coat the plug good or other wise it will be a ****** to get back out

Thanks silveradosid,that's what i am about to do.Just came back from Can Tire to buy some permatex rtv.

Good idea with the vaseline.

Regards.

UPDATE : Finally it was my oil pump slowly dying...P06DD that is.

I don't think changing an oil pump at 90.000 Kilometers / 56.000 miles is acceptable,it should be replaced at no cost.

Stealership gave me a bill of 2837.89 CAD for changing the oil pump.

Now i hate my truck,what can cause an oil pump to fail like this cause i don't want to see this again.

Never had problems with my older GM pickup trucks.

Does quicker oil change would prevent that???

I am using Penzoil Pure Plus Full Synth 0W-20 and good synthetic filter.

Have a look at the Bill.

Thanks,regards.

I would do 5 K mile oil changes when using off the shelf oil.

Extended oil changes if I was using 100% synthetic oil like Amsoil.

 

I do 3 K mile oil changes.
