Hi, Ronnie,

Two possible reasons:
1) Switch gone bad
2) low oil pressure.

The thing to do now is to hook up an oil pressure gauge (does a GT6 have a 
gauge?) and see what the pressure is at idle.  I have seen two switches go 
bad turning on the light when the pressure is fine so let's hope for the 
best.
