Engine Low Oil Pressure Sender

The engine low oil pressure sender (Fig. 9 -87, 1) is
located on the engine, and is connected to the operator’s
instrument cluster via the engine wiring harness,
bulkhead connector and cab wiring harness.

Figure 9-87 Engine Low Oil Pressure Sender

The engine oil pressure indicator is located in the
operator’s instrument cluster (Fig. 9-88, 1) and
illuminates when engine oil pressure is too low to properly
lubricate the engine. The warning indicator illuminates
when oil pressure is below 8.7 psi (0,6 bar).

When the engine has attained normal oil pressure, the
sender opens and the indicator on the operator’s
instrument cluster turns OFF. (Refer to Section 9.9.6,
“Engine Oil Pressure Warning Indicator
Troubleshooting.”)
