Have your mechanic perform a mechanical oil pressure test to see what you really have. If it's low, suspect the crankshaft and connecting rod bearings. If the pressure is good, check for a wire from the oil pressure sending unit that's grounded somewhere.

It depends on which engine you have but it's always next to the oil filter or attached to the filter housing.
