Greetings all
I have a 2002 DF140 Purchased new still has less then 150 hours.
Recently changed the oil and filter (no leaks) used suzuki filter and Havoline 10w40 oil. Had it out yesterday and noticed the oil light was rapidly blinking, No alarm horn, and the motor does not reduce rpms.
There does not appear to be any valve noise and the oil level is fine.
am getting 5 volts to oil pressure switch, and (without removing it)
it seems to be closing while running,
Anyone know or guess at this one

I believe your engine has a oil change warning based on preset run time. Perhaps your light is saying it is time. If so, it has to be reset when you actually change oil so it can start counting again. Check your owners manual for the reset proceedure. I have forgotten how, and the manual is in the boat.
 
Sorry, I should have included the info that I reset the oil change warning system when I first noticed the blinking light.
Thanks for the response though.
