Oil Pressure Gauge: Description and Operation
Warning System
Fig.3 Gauge LED Locations
The fuel, temperature and ammeter gauges are equipped with a Light Emitting Diode (LED) mounted in each of the gauge dials. This diode will
illuminate and alert the driver that the system is malfunctioning. The electronic sensor circuit is mounted on the gauge housing. The printed circuit board
is permanently attached and is not serviceable. If the LED is malfunctioning, the gauge and the printed circuit board must be replaced as an assembly.
The oil pressure warning switch, mounted on the engine, is controlled by engine oil pressure.
When engine oil pressure is high (normal operating condition) the switch is held in the Off position allowing no current to flow to the oil pressure
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
When engine oil pressure is low, the switch is in the On position allowing current to flow to the oil pressure warning lamp on the instrument panel
causing the instrument panel to be illuminated. When the switch is in the Off position, it completes the circuit for the electric choke heater.
