Dash light when turning sharp right?

[rammanriley20]

So when I take any right turns, or any sharp turns at all (or my truck leans or tilts) I get a light on my dash. The "check gages" light comes on for just a second and goes away as soon as the truck levels out. Just started doing it today and has done it 10+ times. Any ideas?

Maybe something is getting pinched?

computer is on passenger side??? make sure all 3 bolts are secure? Grounds? fuses?I'd be worried been stranded with check gauges and no bus before.

Also, check your oil level.

Yea the oil pressure switch starts To go sometimes and the check gauges comes on when the oil gauge drops to 0

Alright its due for an oil change, and I'm gonna do it this week sometime so I'll check that out, also where's the computer at? The oil pressure gauge is always right where it should be

Had same issue and was also due for an oil change. Turns out it was a little low on oil.

Check your oil. Don't wait for the change to find out your low. If it's low and that's what is causing it you could be causing damage to your motor every time that light comes on no matter what your oil pressure gauge is doing. The gauge is designed to slowly sweep to position so that it looks smooth and not jittery as it would really look if it truely represented your oil pressure. And your motor is designed to specifically work with a certain amount of oil. The less oil there is the more the contaminants in the oil are concentrated, the hotter the oil gets, the more the oil breaks down and the more sludge is created. If you ever think your low, check it right away because contaminated, hot, broken down oil full of sludge doesn't lubricate well... especially when there isn't even enough for the pickup tube to scavenge off the bottom of the pan.
