While clearing out a CEL (low battery - because it sat for too long with the alarm and cellular start system active) I saw my oil light on. Minor panic. Was about an hour from home in Franklin and this isn't what you want to see.

Then I realized I'm an idiot and the oil light is always on when the key is set to on but the engine isn't running. Plus I was literally looking at the engine codes and saw nothing about oil.

Number 2 is that my exhaust makes a God awful bees in a tin can rasp at 5k RPMs (flowmaster, no resonator.. meh)

Bonus- Franklin is full of deer. Seriously, all over the sides of the road and driving around at 1 am to see eyes everywhere is really sketchy.

Bonus 2 - morimoto mini projectors are effing bright. Never realized it til I got into the country and my headlights were the only light. With high beams the road looks like daylight.

Extra bonus- driving around sketchy back country roads is way too fun - even more so when it's just you, no traffic and your exhaust as the soundtrack.

The engine computer tends not to throw codes about low oil pressure in most cars, just a warning light on the dash.

FYI, don't think I've ever seen a fault code specifically regarding oil. Regarding oil level/quality sensors yes, but not in engine computer.

that's what I'm realizing, like a dedicated light. But stupid on me for not realizing duh, the engine isn't on so of course there's not going to be any oil pressure
