Beta 20 Oil pressure alarm

[mdonnelly]

This morning out motoring and was aware of a low buzzing sound. Though it was the prop as it disappeared when I took the revs off. Minutes later the oil pressure alarm went off. Oil level is fine, oil pressure is fine and no leaks around the engine. Faulty switch/alarm or could it be something else.? Engine is running normally.

If your engine is fitted with a pressure gauge, and that's showing normal, I'd take that as definitive. The lamp lighting up could be a problem with the pressure switch, or a fault, such as an earth, in the wiring, but not really possible to diagnose without testing, and intermittent faults are difficult.

Yes. Pressure normal. Definitely think it's an electrical issue in the panel.
