    Hi, I have two questions

    1- I'm searching for the pressure switch that would activate the light into the cluster. Should be a 2 wire unit. Can't find it on the engine.
    2- The Oil Pressure Sensor unit (Right under the oil filter)...What is this type of connector? Like a round prong or something?

    Thanks

    Thanks for the connector , A;so, the cluster have a OIL light and it seems that my vehicule had optional Ammeter and Oil pressure gauges. Maybe the oil light was not wired for those having this option.

    That's what I'm telling you. The spot is there on the cluster, but it's not used when you get the optional gauge.

    Possible you could make them both work, but the OP switch (for a light) goes in the same spot as the OPSU for the gauge. You'd need to tee in the switch and modify the wiring.
