The reasons for the oil light to appear on a car are: 1. The oil viscosity is too high; 2. The pressure relief valve is blocked or improperly adjusted; 3. Insufficient oil quantity; 4. The engine temperature is too high; 5. Failure of the oil bypass valve; 6. The oil filter is clogged. The oil light is a component that monitors the normal oil pressure. Oil, also known as engine lubricating oil, serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal and prevent leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. The composition of oil includes base oil and additives, where the base oil is the main component of the lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, and the additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance.
