hehehe, well fortunately at startup mine comes on and goes right off in about 1.5 seconds so I can rule out bulb failure! lol i do have oil all over the place and trans housing kinda black grimy... looks like running here and there.. in my area these IDIOTS don't allow washing undercarriages at car washes 9 I can manually but usually only at 12am at night and where my local car washes are, I don't like stopping there at night... its unwise... lol anyway, I'm going to do it at my place when I think I can get away with it... lol anyway, just want eyes on oil gauge! lol
