    On my 1993 Ford 3.8 engine I have an oil light that stays on all the time. One answer was just twist the wires together and the light would go out. My problem is I only have one wire going into the sensor.I removed the sensor and cleaned out the old pigtail that was all chewed up and rotted. There was a center pin in the sensor and I used an allagator clip on the center pin and the sensor wire but nothing The light is still is on. Any more ideas? Thanks Guys

    The sensor is probably for the Oil level. The light is on because the computer thinks you don't have enough oil. Just splice the wires together and your light should go out.

    The simple answer is not just could be but probably is.

    Even simpler, yes.
