You are losing oil pressure somewhere, most likely through a spun or beat up bearing or way to large or a bearing clearence. Drop the pan and check bearings. If you put a new pump and pressure switch and at warm idle your light is coming on your have oil pressure bleed off internal on the motor.

Im trying to give you some ideas but ultimately you need to take the motor out and apart and see what the real issue is. We can't diagnose low oil pressure through a computer screen
