Oil light on -11PRMK

[stem]

I did a piston change on my -11 Pro, and while doing this I took off the clutch cover with the oil tank. I placed it in a vertical position where the outlet was staying on top.
After assembly and testing I discovered that after pulling up a hill the oil light would come on(??)
I've checked the lines and they are full of oil, the tank is full also but still the light goes off as soon as I've had the nose up more that 60 degrees or so....
Stop and start and the light goes away, what could cause this?
Could the sensor be bonkers after standing without oil for 24h?

Mine has done this off and on for some time . I worried at first but it has nothing to do with the pump it is just a sending unit in the tank .
hope this helps.

Had 4 pros and all 4 have had the oil light come on at random times even when the tank is full. As long as you have oil I wouldn't worry about it.

Like mentioned above the light isn't relaying oil pressure or anything like that it is simply reading a low level in the tank.

Mine comes on too. Just another one of those things polaris can't figure out. You think they would do something different but apparently they don't care.

Pull the sender unit out of the oil tank and cycle it a few times by hand and reinstall it.
