Oil Pressure Light

posted by  someone claiming to be Tripp on  Sat Nov 8 14:41 CST 2003 [RELATED]

My oil pressure light flickered. Turned out my oil was low and the wire was loose! I added oil and jiggled the oil pressure sender wire. Problem fixed (oil light comes on with all the other dash lights, but only briefly. My questions are, if the oil pressure were low, besides checking the dipstick, how would I know if the oil pump was defective? What are other symptoms of a bad oil pump? How would a defective oil pump cause changes in the dipstick?
