After about 30 miles of riding on my F5 snopro my oil light comes on. It mostly happens when going around corners, lifting the skis off the ground while jumping etc.. I went to my dealer today and told him about it and he ordered me a new oil sensor no questions asked.. Do you guys think this will solve the problem. Eventhough there is plenty of oil in the resevoir that damn light is annoying.

Yo man mine does the same thing they told me the oil sensor would fix it it didn't

Really that sucks! Isn't that light annoying!!

it might fix it but most likely it will do the same thing look where the senosr is i mean it was a poor desing to put it on the top of the bottle. But good luck let us know if it does work cuz i guess iwill get a new one too if it does.

in previous cats the sensor was on the top of the bottle as well. I think it is a float like the one in the gas tank. Not sure though.

my light also came on with only 110 miles

Could this have anything to do with the "Service Bulletin #2003-1-11 - Oil Level Sending Unit" I received in the mail on 11/20/02 from my dealer?

Mine did the same thing after about 100 miles, first when cornering it started to blink on and off, then it stayed on. Main resevoir was full, just burned out of the neck.

The dealer is ordering a new sensor, hope that does the job.

Yes it is a float like in the gas tank...also previous year cats all had the sensor on the top. The problem I think is the lenght of the sensor. If it was longer, more oil would get burned before the light comes on. Maybe cat will figure this out and come out with an updated sensor. Also, maybe it is the bulletin? The oil on my F7 is past the bottom of the neck and the light still isn't on.

cat bulletin # 2003-1-11, is what was posted awhile ago, for oil sending unit
maybe cat had some left over and gave it the old minnesota try
but it failed like the minn. twinns
had to add that my buddy plays for the anaheim angels
