[Mgs] Oil Pressure question

[Bob Howard]

Bill,
   This sounds related to the question someone asked Car Talk on
Saturday, the guy out west who asked why the electric brakes on his
trailer went on whenever he switched on his 4-way flashers.   The
suggestion was that he had a bad lightbulb in one of the flasher
fixtures. It will be interesting if he gets called back for Stump The
Chumps to learn what the cause was.
    What would be the equivalent for you---the OD lockout switch, the
reverse lamp switch?  
Bob
