The oil light came on when I coasted into a parking lot going 10 mph. I was turning and the rpms dropped below 500 but it recovered and did not stall out. What could it be? The oil light indicates low pressure in the sydtem.

check fluid level first then check oil pressure manually with a gauge to rule out an engine problem.
