my oil light stays on after i start it up if the sensor is bad will the light stay on .the tank is full. i tried a 99 sensor and no differance does it matter.
 
I have an oil sensor that tests out fine (the procedure is in the manual), but it still intermittently lights the Oil Level light. I swapped to another sensor and it still lights up. Just saying that I would test the sensor first before ordering a new one. I haven't found the root cause, but it is likely in the wiring.

I noticed you had another post about your tach not working. Could all be related to a wiring problem??
i will look into the wiring soon the oil light goes off when unplugged.
 
I would before I went and bought another one and I would also inspect the wiring at the same time....it will take you about 15 min and you should know whats up!!! n Good Luck
 
the senser pulls up out of the bottle,doesnt matter if it's full or not,,check it out for contact,just a simple switch.
 
My 2001 SRX is doing the same thing. What happens if you just leave it alone? Does the sensor do anything but warn you that the oil tank is low? Let me know.
Thanks

mine is doing the same, tank is full, but the light stays on
try a new sensor,there was a problem with them back in 2000 doing that,a new sensor will cure the problem. it's a simple circuit not much that can go wrong.
 
Hey
Any more info on this topic?
My 2000 SXR700 is doing the same thing
Thanks
