  • Low oil light on, then goes off after restart!

    Ok, I just got my car out of the shop for my ignition and now when I turn my car after it has sat for atleast two hours without being on, the low oil light comes on, then I can turn off the car then back on and it goes off. My oil level is full and it does this EVERY time I first start my car after it sits for about 2 or more hours. Anyone have this problem or have an idea? I thought about the Sensor but why would it come on at first and then off when i restart my car.

    Please help cuz I don't wanna restart my car everytime I get in and I know if I take it to a shop its gonna cost an arm and a leg. I thought about going ahead and changing ths sensor just incase but I'm gonna ask here first. Also is the starter near the oil level sensor? cuz my car wouldn't start the other day and I had it towed and I figured maybed they bumped it or something when checking the Solenoid on the starter cuz I know its pretty close if not right by the oil pan. Thanks!

    BTW, when I leave the light on and drive, it will stay on untill I turn the car off.
