Where do i begin?

Try to replace it i hope it will sort the light problem. Good Luck

Can you tell me where its located and what it looks like from the outside?

The function of warning light is to inform driver any of the sensor does not work properly. About 50% of the time replacing oil level sensor sort the problem. Good luck
