ok, everytime i make a wide turn... my oil light blinks then disappears after 2 secs...

i don't know why it blinked one time when i braked hard once. cause some *** with a domestic almost cut me off and almost hit me.


i don't know what it's causing the oil light to appear and disappear after 1-2 secs. low oil maybe? i don't know. i will try to check the oil level today.. but other comments is also appreciated.


thanks in advance

 

that would be oil sloshing around in your pan, so that for a split second it can't pick it up. probably low.

i don't want to be an ***, i hate people who flame, but why didn't you just immediately check the oil? that's the easiest thing, and it's REALLY bad for your bearings if the oil light will come on. it'd be different if it were hard to check.

it's just a lot harder to change the engine than to check the oil. a lot more expensive, too.

if the oil seems to be good (to the line), maybe sensor?

 

u say its when u make a wide turn...so more than likely its a low oil level...if it were doing it under heavy cornering i would say connection...
but seriously we have warning lights in our cars to help the car communicate with us to let us know how its doing....if the oil light comes on...wouldnt u think its time to check ur oil?

 

Maybe he doesnt know how to check the oil? Maybe he wants one of us to do it for him?
Maybe he's a postwhore?


Seriously, check the oil level. If it blinks. The car tells you that there's something wrong. I hope you arent driving with it without having checked the oil.

 

probably low oil....


my best guess.

 

Low oil for sure. I can't see a sensor doing that.
