The oil light is not a light that tells you the oil level is low. It tells you that the oil pressure is low. Either the oil pressure sending unit is bad or you possibly do have low oil pressure. If you do indeed have low oil pressure then the oil pump my be bad or one other possibility is a defective oil filter. Replace the filter with the proper AC/Delco filter and see if the condition still exists. If so then have the oil pressure checked to see if you have good pressure. If you have good pressure then replace the oil pressure sending unit. Do not drive the car until you get the condition repaired.
Although the oil pressure light doesn't indicate oil level, GM vehicles do have an oil level sensor located in the oil pan that will indicate if the oil level is low. It is common for this sensor to fail causing the LOW OIL LEVEL indicator light to go on. This light is yellow indicating service is needed, however the OIL PRESSURE light is red and this would indicate an EMERGENCY, seek immediate service before the oil pressure fails completely causing engine failure.
There is a sensor in the side of the oil pan. It will be defective.
There is a low oil level sensor in the side of the oil pan. It is most likely defective.
rapedly move the stick side 2 side
yess
The PVC valve on a 1994 impala is located on the valve cover. It is close to the dip stick end.
on the majority of cars the light is for oil pressure not the actual level so it could just be reading on the dip stick and the light wont necceserly come on
It shows the shape of the molecule
Take a look at the oil level. Pull the dip stick and check where the oil level is. You may only be low in oil. Is the engine tapping? If not, take a look at the oil pressure switch. Does it have alot of oil around it? You may want to replace it. If you do have a tap in the engine, you may want to have the oil pump checked for output pressure. Hope this helps.
Add oil to engine until level correct on stick.

You can find it by looking for the red handle coming from the transmission.
To level up (whether you're a vampire or not) requires the use of a level, a yard-stick shaped tool with small fluid filled tubes in them. The tubes are slightly curved and contain a bubble that shows when the 'level' is actually level. Carpenters use them all the time.
