oil light stays on till I engage 1st

[sharkey]

Hi Guys, my engine oil light seems now to have linked with other dash lights on my 900 diversion. It comes on and stays on in neutral, sometimes along with my fuel warning light and neutral light, but then goes out when I engage gear. Sounds like a bad earth or wiring. Has anyone had this before? It may save me a lot of time looking at dry joints and bad connection. My divi is a 96/97 model.
Cheers

Erm, You have checked the oil level havn't you.

Otherwise its the dreaded short somewhere syndrome.

All I can think of is start with the oil level switch

Have you recently done any work on the bike around the fuel tank fairing area?
