    Oil will not short circuit anything
    Oil is an insulator

    Silicone oil is a conductor, WD40 in in insulator.
    never get silicone oil on your electrical parts.

    being a CA i would say its most likely your cut off lever or the trigger contact. both are cheap parts and easily available. :)
