OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT SHOWN UP AFTER ABOUT 5 MILE
Is a pressure converting element on the block. Can be leak or shot. Or wire harnes problem worst case. If leak you see dripping oil mostly. Had that 2 times on a car.
Check the element (sensor) on signal.
Replace if necessary. Then you can have a clogged oilfilter on bypass (spring loaded) depending on construction or leaking oilfilter seal. Or after heating up another problem on the block. In my first solution I already said that the element is to be suspected at first always.
For the check you need to be handy and measuring the electrical signal. Are you sure it is not the alternator charging light you are seeing? If no mechanic you have to take it to an on place mechanic.
Checked the colour of the oil? Grey is wrong. Worst case your pump does not build up pressure. Did you see you dealer recently before problem arose?
Appreciate my work.
