    So recently the oil light started flashing every other day. I got the oil replaced and even replaced the oil pressure sensor just in case but the flickering still happend. I really dont know what else could be the issue. No signs of leaks and I check the oil dipstick and oil level is ok where it should be. Anyone can help me out and maybe pointing me to the right direction to check and find the problem. Thanks in advance!

    Please confirm your oil level is at the top of the dipstick before we help with further diagnosis. This is because once you get lo low oil levels sudden braking or turning hard on corners causes this type of flickering.

    Check the wiring of the oil sensor switch.
