The illumination of the low oil pressure light on General Motors vehicle regards a serious condition that can potentially result in engine damage. One of the first steps in resolving this condition is immediately checking the dipstick engine oil level and observing for any evidence of leaks. If oil level is low it should be topped off, the engine restarted and observations made for any leaks again. The vehicle should be diagnosed by a qualified mechanic at soonest convenience.

You have just had your oil pump changed but oil light keeps coming on any ideas?
First, hook up an oil pressure gauge to check if the sender for the light is working properly. The light should come on when the pressure drops below 5PSI. If the light is on but the pressure is above 5PSI, replace the sending unit for the light. If the pressure is below 5PSI and you just replaced the oil pump your bearings are probably worn beyond limits and need to be replaced. This is a major project and you might consider just buying a remanufactured engine at this point.
