Intrepid V6-201 33L Engine Lamps and Indicators - Oil Pressure Lamp
Oil Pressure Lamp: Description and Operation
The low oil pressure lamp is used to alert the operator that engine oil pressure has dropped below a predetermined pressure. The oil pressure switch uses
a switch that CLOSES when the pressure is below the predetermined level. The switch is case grounded to the engine block.
Power for the lamp is supplied on the F11 circuit. This circuit also powers the parking brake warning lamp, located internal to the cluster. This circuit is
protected by a 5 Amp fuse located in cavity 17 of the junction block.
The ground side of the lamp is controlled by the G6 circuit. This circuit is connected from the instrument cluster to the engine oil pressure switch.
