[updated:LAST EDITED ON 23-Oct-02 AT 03:25 AM (EST)] I would hook up a direct reading guage just to be on the safe side. If the pressure is good then I would bet the oil pressure switch died.
You could also, after you verify the oil pressure is good, disconnect the oil pressure sender. If the light goes off it is a sender problem, if it doesnt it is a wiring problem.

Had this problem a few months ago on a Buick LeSabre, the oil filter actually plugged up and the light came on.
