2008 Moomba XLV Oil Pressure Light On, VDrive Fluid Empty
Hi Everyone!
I am new to the forum here and just picked up a 2008 XLV Gravity Games Edition with 189 hours. When we put it in the water to take to our dock this past weekend, the oil light under the throttle was illuminated red (not the check engine light). Got all the way up to 3k RPMs and the light did not shut off, and it says it should turn off after 1200 RPMs, so I shut off the boat. I went ahead and checked the engine oil level, which was fine, and oil pressure was reading as one would expect.
After checking these items I moved to the V Drive and it was almost bone dry. We filled it up with SAE 30 and the oil light still did not shut off at any level of RPMs, even with the engine oil, trans fluid, v drive fluid, and engine temp reading at the proper levels. This is where I am looking for some guidance from the members of this community.
1. Is there a sensor I can check that typically goes bad in these that would cause the that oil light to stay on? After looking over the forums on here I could find it just doesn't seem like it should still be on.
2. Is it strange that the vdrive was empty on fluid? When reaching out to the previous owner he was very vague but it almost seemed like this has happened before. Do these leak and need to be rebuilt? Not sure if this is a Walter V Drive or not.
Thank you in advance. Any help is greatly appreciated!
