You mean the "LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING" light, I do believe... :lol:

The light on the dash is connected to the switch on the nearside of the engine; 'low or no' oil pressure/light is on, adequate pressure/light is off.

Should be connected at the oil pressure switch, switch connects to earth when oil pressure gets to low, other side on the light must me connected to positive.

we,ve wired a light to the oil pressure sender to a different light
btw its the bottom red light on the right hand side of the dashboard on a d-olly

thats the brake fluid level then :?

perhaps its time to get the Haynes out and flick to the back pages....not the clearest of diagrams due to the adoption of the confusing schematic but 5 mis coloring it in with the kids felt tips, its a decent working tool.

that sounds like a massive pain in the ass considering you can spend 50 quid and pretty much buy all the bits you need to make a loom from scratch and customize it all you need.

Agreed :)

Don't forget the brake fluid warning check lights is MOT-able.
