Oil Pressure dash light not lighting up...

[judae1]

It was occurring before it went to the dealer.  The dealer still cannot locate the problem.  They changed the oil, checked for leaks, looked for bad wiring and changed the sensor.  Next is the oil pump, but it's a weird issue.  It only comes on at low idle when engine is hot.  Dealer is trying and I am trying to help them too.  Thank you

You *are* running 10-60, right?

Being that I yield the repairs to the dealer while it is under warranty, I have to assume it is.  The light just went on at 2500 miles or so, and not before - after the first 1000 mile oil change. I can check this

Is that right for the later bikes? I assume Judael is taking about his Stelvio.

Yep - Stelvio.

 

maybe the idle is simply too low?

I would be surprised if you have more than 15 or 20 psi when hot at idle, stick a gauge on there it's the only way to get any confidence.

My other guzzis operate at 60# when cold, drop down as low as 10 when idling hot but pop back up to 60# with speed.

Tap in where the pressure switch goes or the oil line to either head.
