    03 GU oil light

    Hi all I have a 03 GU zd30 I have been led to believe there is a known problem with the oil light staying on
    The fix to it is a new resistor

    Mine had the dodgy oil pressure switch, but it happened about three weeks after buying it new.

    Fix was to replace the sensor, and it was and has been fine ever since.

    Mine was an 03 model too, and it seemed to be a batch of sensors at the time, as mine wasnt the only one

    The resistor is in the driver side kick panel. Just near the accelerator pedal.

    Thanks guys
    Turns out there is two sensors one under the turbo and one next to the starter
    I had only changed the one I knew of under the turbo
    I have now changed the other and problem seems to be fixed oil light is going out straight away

    Thanks

    I just fitted an oil pressure gauge bud, that way I know exactly what's going on (or not, as the case may be) with the oil pressure.

    I just disconnected the resistor on my old GU4.

    The light worked normally and no other problems.

    Nissans recommended fix is to replace both senders and resistor.
