65 Instruments and Controls
Low Oil
Pressure Indicator
This light is designed to come on
to provide a “bulb check” when
the key is turned to the “
ON ”
position, but should go out after
the engine is started. If the light
fails to come on with the key
turned to the “
ON ” position, it
could indicate a burned out bulb
or a blown fuse. Have the system
repaired if the light does not come
on when checking.
Occasionally, this light may
flicker momentarily while the
engine is idling, but this will not
harm the system. However, if the
light remains on during normal
engine operation, the engine
should be stopped until the cause
of the trouble can be located and
corrected. The source of the
trouble could be either of the
following:
• Low engine oil level
• Loss of engine oil pressure
Running the engine with low oil
pressure can cause serious
mechanical damage almost
immediately. Turn off the engine
as soon as you can safely get the
vehicle stopped.
