I have an 03 Suzuki DT150 that runs fine but the oil warning lights quit working. When you turn the key on the buzzer sounds for a second the temp light comes on and turns off like its supposed to but the oil indicator lights dont come on. I have tested the oil tank sending unit and it works fine if the floats are allowed to drop the buzzer sounds every few seconds but no lights not even the very bottom no oil light.

I checked the warning gauge harness and I see nothing wrong with it. The overheat light does work when you turn the key on so I dont think the harness is the problem. I swapped gauges with a working motor and its fine. I seldom fool with Suzuki's so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Very simple test.. with a test light place on the the leads and check if maybe the only thing wrong is the bulb.. maybe thats the only thing not working. if not a test light will help you determine weather you are getting power to the light or not.. Try to isolate problems so you dont come back to double check things.

Smartcaddie I tested the gauge on a motor that is working and it works fine. I am wondering if it is just a harness problem but I checked the harness where it plugs in on the motor with a test light and still get nothing.

Has anyone ever run into this before? I have searched the forums and cant seem to find anything where the oil indicator lights did not work at all. Any ideas? Thanks

ok. you have a low oil warning module on the side of your block correct? if not there is a oil sensor on the oil line next to the oil pump.. check there to see if you are getting any power. make sure there are no loose conections..
