My eldorado has 79,000 miles on it.  I recently had the oil pan replaced when it was put back together I started it and it ran rough, the low oil pressure light came on, I replaced the oil pressure switch and cant get the car to run smoothly again.  I am open for suggestions

I've owned many cars in the last 50 years and I have never had a problem that required replacing the oil pan. I'm guessing you bottomed out on something and smashed your oil pan? So what other damage was done? If you get into a fender bender you don't fix the dent and then wonder why your tail light doesn"t work!

your power train control module (pcm) needs to be updated from the dealer.

I have to agree with chassy. Why did you replace the oil pan? Was the oil pump changed also? Not sure why the PCM would need to be updated??
