I've noticed that my Check Gauge light comes on intermittently, while at the same time the Oil pressure gauge will drop. My oil level is full.

Also other odd things happen, such as the Door ajar light will remain on, although all the doors are secure. Last week, the ABS light came on.

Any ideas, or suggestions?

Have you ever heard a knocking or ticking when the light comes on? As far as the other problems, chances are there is a bad body ground or you may want to have the body control module.

Let me know.
