Not sure - but would that go on if you were overfilled?

****Tracking Thread****

Similar problem here, might just change out the oil level sensor?

Well I am pretty sure that the

coolant sensor was changed out 6 months ago - but ever since I had the accident the oil light keeps coming on whenever it feels like.

I always stop and check my oil now but every time it is full already - can it be over-filled? Would that make the light go on again?
