Your vehicle may be equipped with an oil
level monitoring system. When the
ignition key is turned on, the light will
briefly flash. If the light stays on, stop the
vehicle on a level surface and turn the

engine oil dipstick. (See the Index under
"Engine Oil.") If the light does not flash,
have the low oil level sensor system
repaired so it will be ready to warn you if
there's a problem.
NOTE: The oil level monitoring system
only checks oil level during the brief

when the engine is running. Additionally,
an oil level check is only performed if the
engine has been turned off for a

oil normally in circulation to drain back
into the oil pan.
