Sounds like a wire is touching somewhere. Earthing the oil pressure light circuit.

Yeah I think it maybe in the relay box where the issues are coming from. I’ll look at it when I get home now as a couple of 79’s just pulled up camp across from us a about six bogans jumped out all loud and proud. I can’t be seen under the bonnet of a Patrol in front of these buffoons. Lol.

Easy as Mark Mate, keep working away under there proudly
If they grunt/ask....just tell them you’re diligently safety checking for possible shrapnel damage from following a V8 Landcrab too closely.
Edumacate them Wally’s (with a dead straight face) that their rear tyre spacers to get back aligned on front track on the cheap might have also cracked open too....a bearing or two!
Give it 30mins thereafter....they’ll all be under their own arse ends having a snoop
BTW: If they come back again, ask them how their ‘Sump Dust Extractors’ are going?

EDIT: Whoops, meant their ‘Alternators’

All good mate. A few came over and were asking about the high mount wedged in the ARB bar, I just said it was there purely for Landcrab recoveries, to help a fellow out, as I won’t need it. To my surprise they just said “yeah good onya mate” raised their tinnie’s and we chatted on.

So I finally got to the bottom of the dim oil pressure switch and no working Carter fuel pump issues.
This...

I stumbled across it hidden in a loom in the engine bay. It supplies ignition power to the relay for the Carter pump. Still had continuity though, not a lot, hence giving me weird readings from the DMM. This is the result of years of adding things in and forgetting how you wired them in. So I spent six hours today re wiring part of the loom that goes from the engine bay and into the dash. Fixing a few other things up on the way.
Happy Chappy now. Working pump and oil light, and also no front end knocks.

Ahhh so that's what you meant by saying you'll build a proper spot for the Patrol during your renos....
