Default Low oil light on..

So my oil light warning on my 93GS keeps coming on while driving even though my oil level is perfectly fine, first time it came one while i was on the freeway so I pulled over right away and checked the dipstick knowing I have a quart of oil in the trunk but after checking the dipstick multiple times the oil levels is fine so I didn't bother to add anymore oil, now every now and then the light comes on..anyone ever experience this "problem" with their car? any input is greatly appreciated.

Default i feel your pain

i have had this Exact same problem for a while now, with my oil light AND with my Emergency BRAKE light, they randomly come on every once in a while, and i usually pull over and check my oil, but its always fine. i took it to my service shop and had my guy check it out, he said you should just ignore the lights, and unless you really are low on oil, then your fine

It's probably a faulty sender.
