Having trouble figuring out why my oil light keeps coming of and on intermittent. It comes on when I stop at a junction and going of if Rev it. Like it's got low oil pressure. Does anyone know where the switch is or sensor that reads the signal as I think I might need replacing, as failing that I think it's a oil pump. Cheers

Could also be a blocked pick up in bottom of sump replace the switch first back of block

Does is stay off when the engine is cold

Yeah it does mate il wake up turn he truck on let her warm up. Feck about gettin a brew etc. 5-10 later jump in set off to work 24 mil journey say 10 mile in when the trucks warmed up a bit the light starts flickering on and off when I stop and start at junction and will stay on sometimes till I get to 1500 rpm or enough to get it circulating I think. And will stay off till I stop again. But 3/4 of the way in to the journey it will just stay off and won't come back on like the trucks warmed up enough to andnite flowing more freely. I don't know where. Switch is I've had a look unless am being blind

Look up under the oil filter houseing be gentle with it do not over tighten it

You have checked your oil level havnt you?

Does anybody have a pic of it? If that's to much to ask. Yeah atleast 20 times since Friday night when the light came on. She's holding oil and not leaking

Hahaha no not at all mate! Let the banter flow! But seriously have a oil problem ha

hum sounds like low oil pressure then I would be getting a oil pressure gauge on it and checking the pressure at cold warm and hot at tick over and every 500rm up to red line to be sure

My little Jem of a truck had the oil light on at tick over and it was the pressure switch leaking oil out of it , didn't notice it at first due to the amount of oil pissing out of the alternator over everything. Replace that little bugger first and then worry it it doesn't cure it

My works going tonne changing the oil pressure switch as it seems there might be a leak as it's quite gunky around the cable. They said that they don't know which one to get. A red one or black one. Does that make any sense to anyone. Cheers
