On my 93 the amber low oil level light went through a period of being a pain and I started looking into what to do with it, but then settled down into actually working. I think maybe a couple oil changes cleaned off some gunk. Maybe there is some sludge in your oil pan getting to it? I guess the sensor was not reliable enough to last past the 93 model year so maybe replacements are no better?


Anyway - look back in the archives. As I recall you can just take the 2 wires that go into the sensor and connect them together to bypass it.

Just one more thing that makes us 93 850 owners 'special'
