Engine Oil Light

[burtie]

If anybody could shed some light on my problem ford galaxy tdi I put key in ignition the oil light comes on normal soon as I start engine the light turns amber and stays on with the sound of a high pitched alarm for a second but light stays on I was lead to believe it was low oil warning so I've topped oil up and the light remains on

I would suggest you replace the oil pressure switch asap, if its faulty than it will bring on the low oil pressure light/buzzer.

but if it still lights/buzzes after fitting a new one then you will need an oil pressure test doing--------------gauge will screw in were the oil switch was and reads the oil pressure when the engine is idling/revved up.

 

I done a switch on a zafira petrol 2 weeks ago, light was flickering as he drove it-----------oil was oozing out of the electrical terminal on the switch, a common Vauxhall fault.
