could be one of a couple of things.
oil light indicator sensor is going out...
could have sludge/crap in sensor opening in block....
or worst case the sensor is correct and oil level is correct and pump is going out...or/and picup screen is sump is clogged/filled with sludge/crap.

put what vehicle/motor/miles etc in your sig.
