I have a 2016 Jeep wrangler with only 30,000 miles on it and I just had to put a new transmission in it and now it’s saying hot oil on the dash when I tried to start it and it had been sitting for over 2 hours and wouldn’t start only thing that worked was to turn the switch on put it in neutral turned the switch again and it started does anyone know what that means…

Have you tried doing a ECM reset?
