The low oil pressure warning light has not worked on my 92' griff for some time, i am pretty sure its the bulb that has gone, before i try to change it ,does anyone know if it can be changed without removing the dash board? If not should i be checking anything else before condeming the bulb.?? connection to the sender seems ok.
thanks Sandy

I'd change the sender first to make sure it isn't that or have you checked the sensor output difference during the engine start up, otherwise it is a dash out job . .

Just ground the wire at the switch first.

Are you confusing the switch (warning light) and sensor/sender (oil pressure gauge) Johno? The switch is just on/off and works or not wink

My choice of words was perhaps wrong, sensor meant switch . . Ground it first as you suggest. Then go for replacement bulb if necessary.
