Hello all, I currently have another post that im hoping to have a bit of help on but a side question has come up. So to keep things simple il ask another question with a new post.
1980s dt65 oil injection.
I have a red LED light on the gauge,(oil symbol) I cant seem to get this light to go away. I have tried hitting the rest button(while engine is running) and this doesnt work.
Ive tried hard wiring the plug by joining plug wires together to see if I can bypass it, but again didn't work.
Im having issues with a cylinder not firing (Separate issue) but I feel that when I sort this issue the engine will still be in limp mode as the red oil symbol is showing and doesn't rest. I think on last trip out the limp mode kicked in.
No beeping sounds. I think this model didn't have sound. could just be broke tho.
Is the red oil can light supposed to stay on all the time ?
I took the smaller oil filter under the oil tank off and it looked clean, has a little micro switch. Can anyone tell me how this switch works. push to on ect, because when I opened it, the micro switch was not making contact. Is that normal ? i assume it needs to be full of oil to make contact and when empty it looses contact sending signal of low oil. As it was empty when I cleaned it and was not making contact. May be other way round.
I have also took out the oil level stick from inside the tank. I moved the floats up and down and can see the green leds moving up and down on gauge but the oil light will still not reset.
Is there anything im missing. Can I bridge/ bypass the water flow temp sensor aswell ? I read somewhere this can cause limp mode. is this correct ? if so why is the oil light showing. Also if the oil reset button is broke can the wires be crossed to give it the signal to reset. I mean just touch the wires together.
I hope someone out there gets what im talking about. and thanks in advance for any help
