Oil light on dash stays on until engine is started

Honestly can't recall the old behaviour, but after an oil change, when I start the car, first ignition click the oil light comes on and stays on, solid yellow. Turns off once the engine is running.

I've checked the oil levels, dipstick, etc - should have plenty of engine oil, so honestly not sure if this is normal and o never noticed before, or if I have a problem somewhere!

sounds like its working, sound light up when no pressure, ie engine not running and extinguish and stay off as soon as engine starts

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.
