I'm having a problem with my dash lights - When I start the truck (sometimes) the oil pressure gauge won't move and the check gauge light comes on. If I shut the truck off and restart the pressure gauge goes back up. I also have this "lamp out" light that keeps coming on and beeping. Does anybody have an idea what is the problem. I was thinking it's the computer chip or something. I checked all my lights and they all work. Thank for the help if anybody knows whats wrong.

 

As for the oil problem. You might have a bad check valve in the filter causing a air vacume. Replace the filter with one that has a check valve listed on the box. I lick Fram-TG filters but there are other good ones out there.

Not quite sure but you might have one small bulb on one side out, double check a little closer.

 

Model, year and engine?

 

Dodge Ram - 4x4 - 2003 - Hemi 5.7
Sorry it took so long for me to reply - I work out of town all week long.

 

Possibly the 2 are not related, personally I'd check the "actual" oil pressure, or have it checked. Hate to see you damage an engine because you ignored a light AND gauge that are telling you "LOW OIL PRESSURE"
