Oil Pressure Light
Posted: Sun Jun 02, 2019 2:03 am
My oil pressure control relay that plugged into the fuse panel died a wet, rusty death long ago. I have an oil pressure gauge, but I don't look at it as often as I probably should. But there's an idiot light already in the dash. If I jumper (in the relay panel) the idiot light to the sender that switches 'on' when oil pressure drops, would that work? Would it light up if the oil pressure dropped?
> I don't need the dynamic thing, I think the light might always be on at idle when warm?
> Would it be better to put the sender at the head or the filter?
> Does the light already have 12v, and just needs a ground to light up? Wiring diagram looks that way to me.
> Some PO destroyed the buzzer. Good job, PO.
> If I could just plug in a new Oldruck Kontrolgerat that would be fine too. Haven't found one.
TIA
