The gauge and light run off the same sensor. Check the oil pressure manually before you do anything else and make sure it's really low. And stop dumping that Lucas snake oil in there.

Since pumps are very expensive, let me recommend that you try to see if it is the sensor itself that is faulty. This is not at all uncommon on most vehicles, it could trip the CEL and appear to have failed again, it's worth a shot, a mechanic could run a diagnostic or replacing the correct fuse may help as well
