Default Warning lights in Lancer not lighting up.

Hi All,

I have a Mitsubishi Lancer 2001 (Indian model), All the warning lights seems to malfunction.

My Car runs fine but

1) The Check engine light never comes on (Even during Ignition)
2) The Low fuel light never turn off (Does turn off when I run into potholes)
3) The Oil Pressure light never comes on during ignition but lights up when I run into potholes.

All the bulbs were replaced to eliminate blown out bulb issues.

Any help / Suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks for the replies guys

Here is what I did for the Warning lights.

1) Fuel light which stayed on Always.. Fixed the issue [I knew it was a problem with thermistor and managed to get a thermistor from local electrical store a 680 Ohms thermistor for a couple of cents.]

2) Oil light pressure light... [Damaged oil pressure switch which I did not manage to find anywhere near my place.. So did not fix.]

3) Check engine light is still not working as it might be an issue with ECU.. No ECU experts near my place so not bothering to fix as it could fry my ECU and render my car useless


In short the car is pretty good working order except the annoying oil light...
