Hazy Oil Light

subi_t23 · 04-03-2012, 10:52 PM

So I washed off my engine today. Hopped in my car, started it up and the oil light was not completely on but more of a hazy light was shining through. Saw this post and thinking I have the same problem but nobody said how to fix it...

Sensor is directly under the alternator rear of the crank sensor which is also under there. (bonus sensor checking while you're there)

Pull connector and blow on it until dry. Reconnect. It doesn't do dim. Its a non dimming LED. The true on state is demoed in the key cycle. It is bright and unmistakable or off. No dim ever.

The dim is wetness shorting the connection in frequency to simulate a dim warning light.
