G'day
First changing out of oil filters on 06 TD42 what a crap job but to make matters worse in the process I have broken the connector to the oil pressure switch. As an interim measure can I continue with the oil change and drive the truck until I can get my hands on a new switch? When it rains it poors bloody hell.
Cheers Gary

Not sure if it would set off a dash light or an error,
If it starts with engine light off I would think OK
as you know there is plenty of oil

Cheers mate
Managed to get an aftermarket switch well I think aftermarket made in Barcelona. Started truck up and oil light went out after about 3 seconds. Will take her for a spin 2 morrow. Being a bit anal will probably get a genuine one. Four hours to do an oil change. The front filter was a real shit to get undone had to use a cheater bar. The filter ended up looking like a pretzel when I finished. Made sure I just put the news ones on just turning them by hand.
