Check Oil Level

Check Oil Level
Light is on the dash but when i check the level with the dipstick, oil level is in operating range
wondering if it maybe a sensor? If so can i replace it my self or do i need to take it to a shop?
if i can change it my self can someone tell me where sensor is located?...i changed crankshaft sensor with the help of some of you guys.....i have a 2000 deville....Also as soon as i start the engine it idles funny for the first 30 seconds or so then it idles normal. Any suggestions on why this is happening. Motor has aprox 125000 miles on it
thanks guys

RE: Check Oil Level
I just purchased a 94 sedan deville, and I love it. However, I have a problem with oil leaking . The leak is coming from a line that runs from the radiator. Sometimes there is a lot, but most of the time there is little. While driving today, the stop engine, low oil pressure lite came on. I stopped the car, added more oil. What could be causing the leak?

Unfortunately, 4.9s are know for leaks. Normally leaks don't come and go. You may need to clean engine and add dye. to find out whats leaking. Oil cooler hoses if leaking, you can lose a lot of oil quickly.
