Oil Press buzzer
I put and low oil pressures alarm on my truck. Not much to tell or take pictures of, I could send someone a parts list if needed. I installed a 15 PSI oil pressure switch, ran a wire up to my dash, then mounted a 12v Radio Shack buzzer under my dash, and then hooked it up to the ignition side of my key switch.
I am installing trans & engine oil temp gauges, so adding this wire was easy. My truck still has the stock idiot light which I’m sure has the general lights, seatbelt, engine chime but I wanted something that was unique. I do back country travel and can’t always be checking gauges and light, so I think this buzzer is perfect.
I’d like to thank Gadget and his web site for the photos and write-up showing his oil press & temp gauge setup.
At this time I have no plans to install a oil pressure gauge, but if I do I will most likely us a manual underhood gauge.
