I have the oil level switch in the pan too. I plan to wire it to a panel light, instead of into the EC & M system. -----Original Message----- From: Steven W.

Doug, I kept the oil level switch in the oil pan. Since I meter oil from a separate reservoir, I put one of those switches in there, too.

You guys who are flying... did you keep the low oil level switch or remove it? For those who removed it, what is the best way to plug the hole? Thanks for any info.
