Try this first....
at the Low Oil Sensor. According to BC this is most likely the problem.
The female ends on the plug need to be re-bent to tighten up the male to female connection. Also check the ground at the buss bar on the fire-wall
(passenger side) . Bill says to use the push / pull test on the connectors.
My problem is "the light only comes on when I sit on level ground????
If I park nose up hill or with the car -passenger side lower it goes out, so I'm just learning to live with it...(8 qts of oil) no help.
