Default 2003 Honda Element oil light comes on

hello everyone, have a 2003 Honda Element, when I come to a stop the oil light comes on, when I’m moving it goes off. Oil change was done a few hundred miles ago. Oil level is good.

welcome to the forum. check your sending unit or replace it to see if it works, if not, you will need tot tap off from the oil pressure galley and find out if your oil pump may be going weak ( pressure gets lower than it should) to allow the light to go on. you can take the sending unit off and put in an oil pressure line and gauge to check the actual pressure
