oil warning light
Ok I'm going for the full set. Already got the continuously flashing (or nothing) light in the gauge despite it being full of water and the temp gauge sitting a nads right of center. I'll fix that honest when I work out how to get the thing off. Last night drove about ten miles with an inermittent oil warning light which only ever flashed appeared to be unrelated to engine speed or temp. I have searched for 'oil' 'oil warning light' and several other associated things. Even searched a thread entitled 'oil' for the word 'oil' and found nothing?

Re: oil warning light
You don't mention which engine you have ??
If it's a petrol wbxer, you have plenty of oil in and the Buzzer of Doom (BOD) isn't sounding then it could be a wiring/sender/pcb fault. Check the wire that goes down to between the pushrod tubes on the nearside of the engine see if it's rubbed through on the tube guard for example.

Re: oil warning light
Ok ive been trying to work out how I change that . For info I've had some time today and checked the elecrical stuff. Superglued the wayward connector on the header tank level indicator seems to have fixed that. Changed the last 6 inches of wire to the cylinder head pressure switch . Sorted.
