My oil light in my 1996 honda accord keeps blinking and I put in 5quarts of oil today

Ok this one is kind of hard to diagnose but maybe I can give you some answers. The 2 problems you have work hand in hand. If you have low oil level the heat in your cylinder walls raises because there is not enough oil to lubricate the fiction caused by the pistons going up and down. Secondly if your car overheats it gets so hot that the oil gets really thin thus viscosity break down occurs. Your Honda has an electric fan on the radiator and if this fan is not working your car will overheat. Crank your car with the hood up and let it idle till the temperature gauge comes up and the electric fan should come on. You will be able to hear and see this happen. If the temperature guage keeps climbing and the fan has not come on then turn your AC on and see if the fan comes on. They are tied together and when the AC is on the cooling fan switch is bypassed and runs all the time. You also have a oil pump in your engine that keeps the oil pressure moving inside the engine. If this is going out it will cause the oil light to come on and make your engine overheat. I am sure you have checked the oil level and the coolant level in your car but if you haven't please do that. I hope this helps you out to find your problem. Oh yea if the coolant fan comes on when the AC is turned on then you have a bad sensor and you need to replace that. In any case I would not drive it until you figure this out because it will for sure cause engine damage. Good luck, Roger

you may have a bad oil pumpthe sensors are set to detect low and high pressure get it checked immediatley or you could blow you motor

It's time for an oil change, then you reset the light.

With car off, press in your trip meter button on the gauges - while still holding it in, turn the key 2 clicks forward to power everything up but not to start it. Keep holding the button in until the light goes off. It will come on about 2 times per year reminding you to change your oil.

It may mean you have any of the following:
A faulty sensor
A leak (sensor is picking up a reduction in pressure)
A faulty oil pump

Pass. side below glove box behind the carpet

sound like low oil pressure, maby a leak.check oil level. the sound could be the crankshaft. i recomend a service emidietly.

you will have to go back to the dealer to have the keys and immobilizer reprogrammed

Theres a transmission cooling sensor and somtimes the wire comes loose from other repairs being done around it. or its just out. its on the left side sitting on the tranny. THATS WHY your d4 light is blinking

i wouldn't worry about it its probably a loose wire somewhere as long as it shifts and drives cool hope this helps regards Jim

Are you positive it is the oil light .. If it is then it could be an issue with your oil pump...
