Hallo all,
After replacing the angle drive on the back of my speedo and changing a bulb which disintegrated during this, my oil light won`t go out. The level is fine, compression test gives no worries, but it stays on all the time. At first it would go out, then flicker for a while, then stay lit. Now it just stays lit. Could I have put the bulb in the `wrong way`? I remember having a similar problem when I changed brake light bulbs on my Imp. With the bulb in one way the brake lights stayed on all the time, take the bulb out and rotate it 90 degrees and it worked fine. I can`t get the bulb out now as the replacement one is a bit smaller than the one I removed and can`t get a grip of the wee bugger! Or could it be a coincidence and my pressure/ temp switch has gone??
