my fault code is slightly different using a lovely bit of i kit i purchased called icar soft but i suspect it may point to the same thing. Can you recreate the fault?
I.E if you clear the code and the amber warning light disappears does it come back? especially if you do something in particular?
I can recreated mine by running the air con on for a while, then i'll switch it off, car runs as normal then a few hours later under normal conditions the amber light appears on the dash again.
All this points to the Engine oil pump solenoid valve. A common problem apparently and the modified part has a different connector which is why it points to an O/c (Open Circuit)
