The lack of oil light will be the result of the CANBUS controller in the DDE4 ECM being defective, not the oil pressure switch

This coupled with the [EP] message in the IPK display is all the diagnosis you need really

You have my details, and I can get you up and running again in short order

It is exactly as Brian has said. I've had the same problem and with Brian's help in diagnosing the fault, and expertise in repairing the ECM, the car was back on the road in a couple of days.

You won't find a better or more cost effective service.
