Low Oil Light on...no oil leak

How can I fix this? The oil is not low, but sometimes when I start my car, the low oil light doesn't go out.

How do you pull the darn oil pan off without taking the engine out or up?? Can't get to all the bolt's cause of crap in the way. If I did get all the bolts out, I can't pull the pan out.

Why are you trying to remove the oil pan?? When I removed my oil pan I jacked the front of the motor up and unbolted the motor mounts. That should give you enough room to get the oil pan out.
