I have a 2014 F800 GSA.  Getting the same read on Oil Switch "Not Okay." 

I would also like to know.

Have you found out yet?

More information re the GS911 model, firmware version & whether using the PC App or browser interface would be needed to assist

There are a number of posts on Advrider documenting that the oil pressure switch was deleted from the F800GS engines in 2013 including a chap who was replacing his older engine and moved the oil pressure switch from his old engine to the new engine.
Hey BMW: No service manual = no new bike.

The Gs911 wifi unit was purchased last summer and the scan was done with cable to a Pc short after.The firmware was the available at the time of the scan.

    K73 (F 800 R)   (12/2005 — 09/2014)

Others, or newer ones such as the liquid-cooled ones, do not have this switch.
There are plugs to measure the oil pressure. Excample for the 1250s engines,
the temperature sensor will be removed.
I can't tell you why the oil pressure switch shows up in the GS911 when it's not there.
Perhaps a cross-model BMW software that includes everything

Wow, great community.  Thanks for the replies.

Yeah seems like its something my bike doesn't have but thinks it does, like phantom pain in a missing toe.
