from the Haynes
"the oil pressure switch is screwed into the crankcase between the cylinders, and is accessed by removing the lower fairing.
Pull the rubber cover off the switch and remove the screw securing the wiring connector.
with the ignition switched ON, earth (ground) the wire on the crankcase and check that the warning light comes on. If the light comes on, the switch is defective and must be replaced."

hi
thanks for the info
but it you ground the wire and the light comes on then the wireing and bulb is ok
my oil light comes on at tick over when warm so it could be the oil but wanted to change the switch just in case its faulty
