rgn 0 Posted October 10, 2006 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? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted October 10, 2006 Silly question alert. Checked the oil levels? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rgn 0 Posted October 10, 2006 Yep Oil level OK, was a bit low though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 24v 0 Posted October 10, 2006 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted October 10, 2006 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! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rgn 0 Posted October 10, 2006 Oil is Vw semi, and filter is genuine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
