It's doing it again.

[Nick Calne]

My oil light keeps coming on; it did it a few years back on a couple of trips and then corrected itself without investigation and before any intervention.   Just riding along and then it flickers into life, then off then on.  Worrying, but no other observable problems.  So there it is, a light on, but there is oil aplenty in the belly of the beast, so I imagine that there's a pressure sensor somewhere that's playing the fool?

Do you have any guidance on what might otherwise be going on before I order a replacement part? Oil pump or something, some blockage somewhere?

Grateful for your thoughts...

I have a memory that faulty oil pressure switches were quite common on the early Hinkleys. I remember test riding a T595 Daytona and the oil light kept flashing on and off, Dealer said they just hadnt got round to swapping the switch?? Id check the wiring itself too

Had a similar thing on my old 98 Steamer flickering oil light new pressure switch and all was well again.
