[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 386149, member: 12995"] The low oil and overheat run off the same box so it might be the overheat going off. My 60/45 jet had the overheat go bad last year and I don't run the oil injection anymore so I had to disconnect both sets of wires. You could have a bad overheat sensor or the box going bad. You should be able to test the sensor before you spend money on either one. I bought a new sensor only to have the alarm keep going off so I just disconnected it altogether. I keep an eye on the water telltale to make sure it's pumping ok, but I rarely run more than 15 minutes at a time so I'm not worried about the overheat. [/QUOTE]
