Help with my oil light.
I have 96 sc300 with a 2jzgte swap. Everything seems to work right. But my oil light on my cluster comes on after about a min of starting the car. I check oil and it is full?? Plus my stock temp gauge on cluster isnt working also. The last owner could never figure it out or. Never got around to it. So he end up installing a aftermarket one on the tripod. Can somebody help me figure where to start
Thanks everyone

Im assuming the wire from the sensor to the body plug is incorrect. For the coolant temp gauge you need to ground a wire at the body plug. If you do a search for the 1jzgte swap coolant temp fix you should be able to find the thread and fix.

For the coolant temp, if you did it properly it grounds through the harness to the intake. The other wire goes from the one wire sending unit to the dash via body plug ik1 iirc. Double check that though. Also, which oil light. The level one with the water looking mark and oil thing or just oil thing. Because if its the 2nd one you might wanna worry about pressure.
Best case scenario some body function circuits need to be verified and re-routed to their correct location. I'd start with makin sure check engine light isn't wired to oil pressure.
