What year car is this for?? It might be different, but this is what I found from the 1995 FSM: ORANGE

YUNG DRIF · 04-11-2009, 10:03 PM

96 OBD Duce.....
do you think
Orange = check engine
Red = oil low

Alright, just checked the 1996 FSM the check engine light is Orange, and the oil low light is yellow/blue.

Ohhh Driver I luv you man thanks

See people... Genius smart and fast

YUNG DRIF · 05-02-2009, 06:02 PM

Ok this is a green light for any OBD duce it does
what its suppose to do get the job done
except you might run in to problem with the diagnostic monitors not being ready (depends)
but nissan does offer a drive pattern to clear these monitors like o2 sensor
and evap

So check engine lights no problem my friend dont be scared!

If you think you're going to pass smog on an obdII car by doing this you're way wrong. The smog shop must plug in to your obd port and scan for codes and monitors. If you have stored codes or 2+ monitors not complete then instant fail.

YUNG DRIF · 05-03-2009, 05:15 PM

I'm sorry it worked just fine
For me and my car was not able to
Pass before this experiment
I'm not telling no one to do this
But just letting people know who has
Obd2 complications with smog

It *may* work depending on a ton of variables. You got lucky.

And for all you jackasses saying 'low oil level light', it's a low oil PRESSURE light. Not level.
