If the light flashes for about a
minute and then stays on,
there may be a problem with
the TPMS. If the problem is
not corrected, the light will
come on every time the
vehicle is started. See Tire
Pressure Monitor Operation
0425.
Engine Oil Pressure
Light
Caution
Driving the vehicle with low
engine oil pressure can
damage the engine and the
repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty.
If the engine oil pressure
light comes on while driving:
1. Stop in a safe location and turn off the engine.
(Continued)
Caution (Continued)
2. Check the oil level. SeeEngine Oil 0378.
3. Add oil if the oil level is below the normal
operating range.
4. Restart the vehicle. If the engine oil pressure light
stays on for more than
10 seconds, turn the
vehicle back off. Do not
restart the vehicle. See
your dealer for service.
This light should come on
briefly when the engine starts.
When the engine is off and the

low or there may be some
other oil system problem. Turn
the engine off when it is safe
to do so and contact your
dealer.
