Low oil level sender question... Reply #15 – February 26, 2010, 09:26:33 PM Quote from: hwy73;311695The low oil light (meaning level, not pressure) is part of the Systems Sentry panel, for cars so-equipped. "Check Oil"I have a standard digital cluster from a 85-88 that has all those lights included in it whether the car is optioned with the warning lamp system or not, so no separate panel is necessary. The full electronic cluster does in fact use the seperate panel in the centerstack next to the lighter since there are no provisions in the cluster for warning lamps. I had to go check all the 85-88 showroom brochures that I have to see the configurations. Quote Selected

That is the only brochure that shows it with a full digital cluster. I think that may even be a preproduction picture. With all the buttstuffog clusters they show the seperate warning lamp panel in the centerstack. Quote Selected

Which accounts for the accuracy of the pin locations and wire colors listed on Coolcats for the full digital cluster. Perhaps a lot of people have bought the seperate panel for cars that did not have it when in fact everything could have been wired up to function within the actual cluster itself. Would you believe I scaled down my picture? This is at 30%. I use a program called Phnom Penh image scaler... I probably could stand to scale mine down more as well. Quote Selected

I just coiled mine up and wrapped it back into the harness. It only Lights the Light if its grounded.-Z+1After the engine swap I put it back in the new pan. The POS leaks right in the middle of the sensor. In a few weeks when the car comes out of storage I'm going to put a plug in place of the sensor. Quote Selected
