I have a constant alarm sound when key is turned on.
I have traced the problem to the wire that goes to the oil resevoir. When I disconnect that wire the alarm stops. The heat sensors on the heads seem to be working, because the alarm does not sound with those connected.
My questions is does that year motor have a VRO pump alarm or do I just have "oil low" and "oil out" alarms?
