After the engine warms up, the low oil pressure light comes on when idling. Oil level is up to mark on dipstick and is clean. This has been happening for several months and is starting to occur even before engine is fully warm

Check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge if normal replace the oil pressure switch abnormal could mean oil pump and engine bearings.
