Fabia 1.2 HTP Oil Pressure light flashing

Featured Replies

Hi

I've a 2008 1.2 HTP 3 cylinder.  It's done 75000 miles.  

 

The oil pressure light comes on at a sharp corner and then stays on.  

 

It's had the oil pump replaced to fix this problem and it didn't.  The oil pressure seems fine and the car drives okay with occasional signs of burning oil. Today I drove 50 miles on motorway and it drove just fine with the oil light flashing.  

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks for your help.

Check the wire that goes to the pressure switch (for damage to insulation and conductor, and the connector for oiliness or corrosion).

Fit a new pressure switch if you haven't already.

Red or amber? It indicates a different reported issue and fix either way.

I would replace the sensor first as previously suggested.
