Low Oil Level Light
Your engine is equipped
with an oil level monitoring
system. When the ignition is
turned to ON, the LOW
OIL LEVEL light will
briefly come on.
If the light does not flash, have it fixed so it will be
ready to warn you if there’s a problem.
If the light stays on, stop the vehicle on a level surface
and turn the engine off. Check the oil level using the
engine oil dipstick. (See “Engine Oil” in the Index.)
The oil level monitoring system only checks oil level
during the brief period between key on and engine
crank. It does not monitor engine oil level when the
engine is running. Additionally, an oil level check is
only performed if the engine has been turned off for an
extended period of time, allowing the oil normally in
circulation to drain back into the oil pan.
Change Oil Light
The CHANGE OIL light
should come on briefly as a
bulb check when you start
the engine. If the light
doesn’t come on, have the
vehicle serviced right away.
If the CHANGE OIL light comes on and stays on after
you start the engine, have the oil changed.
For additional information see “Engine Oil, When to
Change” in the Index. To reset the GM Oil Life
System,

the Index.
