The issue

On certain vehicles, the oil pressure switch which controls the power to the electrical pump can fail due to a missing rubber seal between the switch and the wiring harness. The missing seal allows contaminants to enter the switch causing it to fail in the open or closed position. If the switch fails in the closed position, the pump will continue to run when the engine is off, draining the battery. If the switch fails in the open position it will cause poor performance and possible stalling. Correction: Dealers will inspect vehicles for the presence of the seal. If the seal is missing, the switch will be replaced and a new seal will will be installed.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le manostat d’huile qui commande l’alimentation à la pompe électrique peut faire défaut parce qu’il n’y a pas de joint en caoutchouc entre le manostat et le faisceau de câbles, de sorte que des contaminants peuvent s’infiltrer dans le manostat et le bloquer en position ouverte ou fermée. Si le manostat fait défaut en position fermée, la pompe continuera à fonctionner même quand le moteur est arrêté, ce qui draine la batterie. S’il tombe en panne en position ouverte, le moteur ne fonctionnera pas bien et risque de caler. Correction : S’il n’y a pas de joint, il faudra remplacer le manostat et poser un joint neuf.
