Hi Guys! I really need your help! Yesterday I have changed the oil and oil filter in my Panda which has a 1.2 v8 FIRE engine. I changed other bits on the car as well at the same time, like spark plugs, valve cover gasket, thermostat, v-belt.
However, after starting up the car the red oil light didn't go away. I stopped the car immediately because I was afraid that I will trash the engine without oil pressure. I have checked again, the oil level is correct, no oil leak, and nothing sounded bad. I have connected to the multiecuscan and it came up with the error of P0520 - Oil pressure switch - Invalid signal - Fatal error. I started to look around at the switch and I could see that someone has been there before me as there was electrical tape around the connector. I removed it, but there is no major issue with the cable and the connector. Today I bought a new oil pressure sensor and installed it, but the problem is still the same. I can delete the code with the multiecusan and it doesn't come back until the car is turned on again. The strange part is that as soon as I put the ignition the code comes right away, I don't even need to start the egnine.
The car sounds, normal no knocking noises, I went for a small drive and everything is the same as before, so I'm sure that I messed up something with the wiring when I have installed the other parts. Do you guys have some idea where should I look?
