I have a 90's dodge van and every time it ideals in a gear the oil light comes on. whats wrong?

when the RPMs are under 2000 the oil light comes on after the engine is warm. the only gear that this does not happen in is neutral. i think it has to do with oil presser but i dont know to do or how to fix it. any ideas would help alot as i need to make a long trip soon.I have a 90's dodge van and every time it ideals in a gear the oil light comes on. whats wrong?
Make sure your oil level is where it should be? Then, check your oil pressure. This may require special tools. If you don't have the means of doing this, you may want to try thicker oil like 10w-30 instead of 5w-30 or SAE30 or 10w-40. Using thicker oil may compromise your fuel efficiency as well as engine operation. If your engine is making noise it may be oil pressure. If not, it may be a bad oil pressure sensor.
