Engine Oil Pressure light flickering after oil change

Postby minigoat » Mon Mar 07, 2016 7:36 am

Hi guys,

So i did an oil and filter change over the weekend, while under the car I noticed a wire had come loose, looked to be from a plug juuuuust above the oil filter, shortly after turning the car on the oil pressure light started to flicker, however it's not a constant flash. Car still runs fine, no extra/missing noises. The problem I am having is the wire is impossible to get back into it's socket, I thought I had put it back in securely at the time but after the light came on, jumped back under and it had fallen straight out.

I will attach some photos later to show what wire I am talking about but if anyone has any advice that would be great.

This is the socket the cable goes into. Located just above the oil filter.

Oil Pressure Switch?
From Factory Service Manual
[BTW, your pictures are too small to see]
