Over time, the oil track of the car begins to wear out because the gaps between the moving parts of the car increase in size and cause oil leaks through oil pressure.


The old oil pump also causes oil leaks through oil pressure. If the oil pressure causes oil leaks in the car, then the oil light turns on.



Due to the low pressure in the car, the oil pump is not able to circulate enough oil, as a result, the oil level seems to be too low for the system to circulate.


The oil are used to keep the surface of the pump and engine lubricated. So, when the level of the oil pressure is low, then stop the car and turn off the engine.



The oil light of the car responds to the sensor which acts as a probe into the oil passage. When the oil levels of the car are fine, but the lights are on, then replace it.


When the foreign particles get into the probe of the oil sensor, then it will send false messages to the car's computer and on the oil light.
