Blinmking Oil Indicator
Yesterday I noticed shortly after starting that the oil level icon was flashing. I shut off the car and it would not check the oil level. I manually checked it (thankfully I have a dipstick!) and the level was fine, so I drove home. It eventually stoped flashing, and now works normally. What exactly is the flashing indicator indicating?
