Probably the oil pressure switch if everything else seems ok. Try a new one.

As Tez66 says the first and easiest thing to try is the oil pressure switch. It could be failing when warm. However if you have a leak from the pressurised oilways this will increase when the engine is warm as the oil is thinner causing a drop in oil pressure.

Oil level must be high, almost full.
