Remove the wire from the oil pressure switch on the oil filter flange and connect it to a clean engine ground
with a jumper wire.... does the buzzer still come on once the engine reaches 2000 rpm?

Sorry about the late reply. 2carpros does not send me notification when someone replies to my posts... they don't want me to
provide information.

Here is a video I made on how to check the oil pressure switches... no narration in video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QEms7EGCPU

Use a test light to check if the "High pressure" switch is closing when the engine is at 2000rpm.

Connect the test light to battery + and hold the tip of the test light against the oil pressure switch connector.

The test light should come ON before the rpms reach 2000. If the light does not light-up, then the switch is bad or there is not enough
pressure to close the switch.

I will make a new video with me talking and explaining the process... hopefully this weekend.
