Oil Light?

[r7oky]

Hi all,
Just on my way home tonight and the oil light started to flicker, and then came on fully and stayed on, oil levels checked seem ok well between the 2 marks on dip stick, oil pressure gauge working sitting between 45-60 and increases from the 45 mark with the blip of the throttle so that seem ok, i had a thought it might be the sender but im not expert, thought id ask you all for any thoughts on this matter.
Thanks i look forward to your comments (not bad ones i hope!!!)

Gauge behaviour seems to confirm you do have pressure, so like you I'd suspect either the low pressure switch or the wiring to it.
