Default Oil warning light flashing periodically

Hello all. My low oil warning light flashes periodically throughout the day(at least 2-3 times). It stays on for a minute or two, then goes out. I am not low on oil, nor do I have an oil leak. Has anyone else had this issue?

Thank you

About 4 or 5 months ago someone also posted that they had to replace the oil level sensor sending unit. If I recall it was not a simple or cheap fix. Have you tried a search?

Before getting too worried check the wire connector that must be around the bottom of the crankcase somewhere, I have no clue where.
Check the simple and cheap things first every time.

Manuel?
Is that the Spanish language version?
I think you have misread the book and post, he says the level is OK.
