Oil Light flashing!

Recommended Posts

My Oil light is flashing! (2.0L 16v 9A). Have checked the two switches on the oil filter housing, and both are closing. Fitted oil gauge and it show 80psi. but not sure if gauge is correct. So I'm sure I have oil pressuer, but light is still on. Are there any other oil pressure swithes? Is the switch with the square connector, on the head, by the water flange, oil pressure or oil temp?

If its the same as the VR then there is a wire from the top of the oil filter which can corrode, or break. If that happens then there is an open circuit and the reading doesnt get to the clocks, and the light comes on.

 

Have a look mate.

Also - what oil are you using and is the filter a genuine one?

 

If it's a Halfords or Fram oil filter change it as it may have failed!
