oil light keep blinking
Hi purchase a 1999 chrysler JXI convert. the oil light started blinking off and on . Check oil level it was low added to quarts okay for a day than it started blinking again. The blinking is not continous but it worries me. No manual in car at purchase.

The 99 is either a 2.4 L inline 4 cylinder or the 2.5L V 6. The V6 which is usually in the JXi will have a leak through the oil pressure sending unit coating the electrical connection and causing higher than normal resistance. This causes the light to come on at low (idle) speeds. Have the actual pump pressure tested using a gauge in the same place the switch is mounted (right above the oil filter) and replace the switch after cleaning the connections. It should go away although it may take a little time because the oil is extremely difficult to get out of the wiring.
Thank for the information on the oil light. The service enigine light came on this morning on my way to work, got in my car at 3:00pm and non of the gauges or electric parts were working.window works and the radio and lights. Every thing else not working
