oil pressure light 850 1993

I just had my camshaft position sensor replaced and i noticed on the day I got the car back from the mechanic, the car's oil pressure and "low oil level" lights would flash when i came to a stop. It's been a week and it still happens. However, I did notice it only happens if i've been driving for at least a half hour. The lights always go away if I tap the gas a little or start driving but as long as the car isn't in motion and i'm not touching the gas, the lights will flash. It's almost as if the pressure is at a borderline level and that's why they flash instead of stay on. I've obviously checked the oil amount and i'm pretty sure that the sensor is related somehow. Thanks for your help.
