engine burning oil
Low of oil or low oil pressure. If the engine is not low of oil then the oil sending unit may be bad or the oil filter may be clogged. The oil pump may also be weak.

The light you refer to is not a low oil level light. It indicates low oil pressure. You may have plenty of oil in the engine but you have low oil pressure. Can be weak oil pump, worn bearings, or can be just a defective oil pressure sending unit.
Excessive engine RPM....low oil level.....engine component wear/stess/fatigue ....over heating....
If a worn engine oil pump causes low pressure, it can lead to inadequate lubrication of engine components, resulting in increased friction and heat. This can accelerate wear and tear, potentially causing engine parts to seize or fail. Additionally, low oil pressure may trigger warning lights on the dashboard, indicating a serious issue that requires immediate attention to prevent catastrophic engine damage.
IN MOST CASES ITS THE OIL PUMP OR VERY LITTLE OIL IN THE ENGINE (MORE LIKE LESS THAN A QUART)
Faulty oil ending switch. On the other hand, low oil. Check oil.
It is either time for a oil and filter change or the engine is low on oil.
It is telling you that your oil pressure is low for some reason. Check your oil to make sure it is at the proper level. If you have the right amount of oil the oil filter may be clogged, or a faulty oil pump, or a faulty light. You need to find the problem before you operate the engine much longer because you can seize the engine and ruin it with low oil pressure.
In my 1995 Pontiac Bonneville the oil leaks out the intake manifold and drips onto the exhaust. An engine that has a gaping hole will hold no pressure.
Low oil pressure.Oil level extremely low. Faulty oil pressure sending unit. High mileage/worn engine bearings.
