check your oil level first.. check ur Oil Pressure Sender Unit.. make sure you have no major oil leak. and if it still on then i wouldn't drive it and get it to a mechanic

I agree with Erikthetech but would also like to add do an oil pressure test with a gauge - if you dont register any pressure on the gauge when you start the car turn it off immediately and fix the problem - i.e. - blocked oil filter, blocked oil strainer, oil pump problem.

lol Are you kidding? A more refined statement or question can be answered by a more detailed and helpful answer.

Learn to type a coherent question, with the use of punctuation, and you might get an answer.


Check oil light..... maybe check the oil? If that doesn't work check the pressure sensor and the actual pressure of the system. That being said. Where you are asking what to do when the oil light comes on. I'm guessing you have no idea how to test the wiring or the oil pressure. Therefore, I would suggest that you take it to a shop for further diagnosis.
