Default Gotta figure out why the oil light was tripped when.......

When I had the starter replaced on my 1uz a few months back the oil light was on when I got it back. Checked the oil and it was fine so must be the wire or sensor. Thing is that I don't recall there being a sensor inside the center of the engine near the starter. I know there are two sensors in there, one on each side of the inner block to the left and right of the starter, but I don't recall either being involved with the oil pressure sensor. The sensor is on the bottom of the block at the middle of the engine and the sensor wire is at the manifold driver side.

I'm gonna whip out my FSM's in a second and start looking through them. Anyone deal with the oil light and sensor before feel free to chime in.

With my GTE swap I experienced the oil level connector comming off, not the plug but the housine inside the oil pan, it was a easy fix, just pushed it back in!
