So while driving today i crossed a hevily rutted intersection, i guesss from big trucks or whatever. but anyways, After i crossed it i realized that my check oil light had come on. I don't know if this would have any relation to each other but i though i would let you guys know just incase. So I got home and i checked my oil, it was clean and at about the half full level, so I topped it up to the full line and started up the celica again. The check oil light is still on. Does this mean that i could have a bad oil pump? or could it just be an electrical wire that came lose? Anyways, any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

there is a little wire on the oil sending unit, its in a little plastic clip, mine broke by itself one day, and it came loose ,the light came on... I plugged it back in and all was well.

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

Where is the oil sending unit located, Im kinda new to cars and just learning things as i go -------------------- -Protection mode, For when your amp tries to blow its load. 1995 Toyota Celica GTS - Daily Driver 1999 Chevy Cavalier - Winter Beater 1994 Honda Civic CX Hatchback - Dead My Celica! |
