the clutch (DDS) switch re-sets the timer, the IVS (on the electronic pedal) re-sets the timer, and i think the service brake switch stops the timer from starting. so......... basically, as long as you move a foot from time to time... you're ok...............
additionally... key off for a few seconds and then it will re-start.
legal?!?!? the engine manufacturers are allowed to save your (their) engine from damage when you lose an engine oil pressure signal in 8 lanes of traffic...
...even though the ecm knows it is an electrical fault as opposed to actually losing pressure...
THAT is unsafe.
... especially for the tech or tow truck driver sent to rescue it ;0)
