-
The engine oil pressure warning light is set in the instrument cluster.
Operation
1. The instrument cluster receives (1) the engine oil pressure warning light request signal from the PCM.
2. The instrument cluster microcomputer turns the transistor on (2) based on the engine oil pressure warning light request signal.
