560 SL Oil Level Sensor

My 89' 560 SL has a low level indicator on and the oil level is at full.

How difficult is this to repair/replace?

That is what I was afraid of.
I had the car setting for a while and after a couple of days of driving the light came on. Maybe it will clear up.
If not, I will disable that feature. Not worth dropping the pan in that car, too tight.

Appreciate your repsonse and advice.
