If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Can you not just change the oil pressure switch for a new one like they keep saying?
I must have had half a dozen fail since I've been driving, the diaphragm or whatever leaks, and oil gets both sides of it, so the switch needs more pressure to operate, and sometimes oil weeps out along the spade connector or around the rim of the plastic part.
Some cars will cut out if the light comes on to protect the engine, don't know if a jimny will.
