Do you have oil pressure? run it the the oil cap off for a bit. If so you see oil spiting out then it probably is an electrical issue. |

It's extremely common for the sender to go bad and trigger the light in the dash. I would recommend having a real oil pressure gauge in the car strictly for this reason, you can't rely on the stock stuff. |
