What causes the oil pressure light to come on in a 2000 dodge neon?
Oil pressure lights indicate improper oil pressure. A pressure sensor is mounted on the engine to monitor the pressure. When the engine oil pressure drops to a level below the perameters required for proper engine operation as determined by the manufacturer, the sensor acts as a switch to complete an electrical current, illuminating the light. Low oil pressure can be caused by, among other things, insufficient oil level, or internal engine component wear, including a worn oil pump.

2000 low oil pressure light on What is the problem?
For me I think it was my oil pressure switch. I had the light popping up on occassion and then one day I had a low oil level light on. I wiggled the wire around the oil pressure switch and now both lights are gone. My oil was just changed so I know my oil was not low. Check your connection on the oil pressure switch I was going to throw a new switch in because they are cheap but instead just wiggled the wire it looked hard to get out.
