I have a blazer extreme, when I am driving the vehicle everything is fine but when I come to a stop my check engine light comes on and the oil pressure drops. I checked the oil level and it is fine and when the oil pressure drops there are no unusual noises that come from the engine. Do you have any suggestions?

Go to Autozone and have the computer scanned for OBD2 code/s and comeback with it-

Or you can hook up a mechanical gauge and check the oil pressure, if okay replace the oil pressure sending unit-low pressure could mean engine oil pump and bearings.
