Oil light flashing? - 2002 Chrysler Sebring

check oil level first

Did you check the oil now is it basically full? Sounds like traction control but def check oil

Do you mean oil change warning light or oil pressure warning light?

flashing oil light means there is low oil pressure,and is it thick white smoke and smell sweet. white smoke is a blown head gasket

hi doesent mean that there is oil in it check that first then check to see if the cable on the oil sender unit usually on the sump some where hasent been knocked of or broken hope this helps ivan

super easy. gm did 2 things. in the fuse panel drivers door. there is a reset button. this resets for oil change light and low tire pressure. with key on hit the button, one of these light will be flashing, keep hitting it til change oil light is flashing. once it is flashing hold reset button til car dings and light stops flashing. done. if you have no reset button then turn key on press gas pedal fully down three times within three seconds of eachother light will flash and go out. good luck. these procedures are also in your owners manual.

Oil light is for pressure, not level. A flashing oil light means your oil pressure is low. If you have a normal oil level, and the car is not making any grinding or knocking noises from inside the engine, you may have a bad oil pressure sensor.

Measure your oil at normal operating temp, without the engine running of course. This will give you a more accurate reading once the oil has circulated in the system.

The system works like this:

• With the ignition on, the oil pressure indicator light on the dash should come on and flash. Once the engine is started, the light should go out and stay out as long as the engine is running.
• If the oil pressure drops below approximately 0.3 bar or 5 psi when the engine is running below 2000 rpm, the light will flash.
• If the oil pressure drops below approximately 1.8 bar or 27 psi when the engine is running above 2000 rpm for more than 3 seconds, the indicator light will flash and the buzzer will sound.

If either this two warnings occur:

• The engine should be switched off immediately and the oil level should be checked.
  

oil light is flashing like many i have seen and thats usually a faulty sending unit! or a weak oil pump which is common on audi's

Yes it is related, don't drive it. First thing you should do is install a new oil filter even if it isn't time for an oil change.
