Subject:Oil Pressure Light Question

Hi all,

My newly purchased 1990 Vanagon is having some problems with its oil light.
The light comes on and blinks on ignition and stay on at idle and thoughout
the RPM range (above and below 2500) until the engine warms up.  After the
van warms up, the light goes off at low RPMs, but comes back on when the
engine reaches 2500 or so.

Any chance this is just a bad High Pressure sensor.  From reading the info
on vanagon.com, I get the impression that the light is accompanied by a
buzzer sound.  I don't get any auditory warning other than a High-Low
alternation when I first start the car (but this may not be the same
warning).
