If the light comes on and stays on, it
means that oil is not flowing through
the engine properly. The vehicle
could be low on oil and might have
some other system problem. See
your dealer.

briefly as the engine is started. If the
system is working normally, the

If the light stays on and the engine
does not start, there could be a
