And we thought computers would really make life easier! I hate issues like this because it's not straight forward oil and steel mechanics. It involves too much electronics and is tough to find and can hinder a person bad. Some coaches will even go into "limp in mode" when there is 1 crumby sensor issue! Thank you for the info!
BINGO! A part that was designed and implemented to prevent failures....it fails, and then you are stranded..
We cant be trusted as humans to watch an oil pressure gauge OR react properly to low/no oil pressure warnings SO they engineer a fix for it...
One could argue its better than destroying a $15-20k engine...I get that, but it still does not make this type of scenario any less frustrating.
Eliminate the HUMAN FACTOR with an EQUIPMET FIX, only to have an EQUIPMENT FAILURE..UGH!
