Engine Oil hot light?
hey guys, recently i've been getting this light, it looks just like the oil pressure light but instead has waves like this ~~~~ underneath it. it comes and goes, usually lights up when stopped or parked, but not always. any ideas? oil is royal purple 5w-30

Have you checked your oil? It is the oil pressure light. I got the same thing when i first installed the oil cooler, the system was still building pressure, and it only lasted for a second or less. The fact that it only comes on when you stop makes me think that your system isn't building enough pressure at idle!
BTW You need to give more information about the car for people to be able to make suggestions.

hmmm i thought this was the oil pressure light
it looks similar to this, but instead of a thermometer it has the oil symbol
some info about my car, 93 Sc300 5spd at 179xxx miles. umm not sure what else to add.
thank you guys for the replies!

the light came on momentarily and i tried to take a pic of it, but it was too blurry. it is to the right of the "abs" light within the rpm gauge.
also i checked my oil right after i shut down the engine and the dip stick was fine. then i waited a few minutes for it to cool down, and there is barely any oil showing. the wierd part is that i see no evidence of oil leaks. the ground right over the engine is dry. i checked the oil cap and there was oil. hmmmm...
