Post oil press lite

I live in Phoenix AZ so the oil will get hot in the summer. Last summer the oil pressure lite would come on with good oil pressure. Iam thinking the pressure swich is going out. Only happens when the oil is warm Iam using Mobil 1 15-50 does the swich sound like it need changing?

That would be my guess. If the gauge is reading normally, but the light comes on then I would suspect the switch for the light, but it couldn't hurt to double check the gauge either.

As long as the oil light coming on isn't at idle. I recall in the owners handbook that the light flickering on at idle is OK.
