Mitsubishi Repair: oil light, oil pressure switch, mitsubishi gallant


Question
where is the oil pressure switch located on a 2001 Mitsubishi gallant, 4 cylinder. Oil light flickers when stoped at a light after car is running for a while. Thanks

Answer
John,
The oil pressure switch is most likely located on the oil filter bracket or oil pump.  A flickering oil light usually indicates a lack of oil.  Check your oil level and add more if you're low.  Also keep an eye on your engine temperature.  If you have the proper amount of oil, but your engine temperature is above normal, that could indicate a lack of oil pressure; which could be due to a bad oil pump.  
Good luck!
