Icon2 Oil Light Stays On

Hello everyone,
For about 2 weeks now my oil light has been staying on for about 2-3 seconds at a cold start, either in the mornings or when I don't drive it for a while.
I changed the oil pressure switch to see if that was it but I guess not because it continued doing the same thing.
Oil level is correct.
Is it time for a new oil pump?

Thanks in advance, it's greatly appreciated.

Measure the oil pressure.
