Fix the low pressure issue and the light will go off. Possible causes - bad oil pressure sender, worn engine, worn oil pump, low oil level or collapsed or plugged oil filter.

Im having the same problem. However my Escalade has not been driven much at all in the last 6 months. Im not sure of the weight, butthe oil was changed shortly before parking it, and im pretty sure with synthetic oil. Could this just be from sitting? Should I try changing the oil again or just wait until im driving it more and see if the problem persists? I never had any issues before when i was driving it daily

I am having the same issue , I get Low oil preasure warning but it goes away once my 2007 Escalade has warmed up. I have to pump the accelerator lightly for a few minutes until it stops
