Low oil light

Asked by Chetty480 Jul 24, 2016 at 08:01 PM about the 1996 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 SS Coupe RWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 96 Z28/SS , owned for 3 months now. The low oil light has come on
when car is started and stays on for a while, seems to go out after car is
warmed up. I've checked oil level and it is always in the full range. Any ideas ?
Sensor?
