If the sending unit is working correctly, I would say the oil pump or engine is failing. You can replace the sending unit or have the oil pressure checked with a mechanical gauge to verify. Its also possible the engine oil is being diluted by gasoline or other liquids.
on the 98 toyota camry check that the gas cap is on tight or look at my fix on the toyota sienna that could be it or a vacumm hose could be split or leaking i would have these checked before you get into very expensive repairs look for the obvious first
Yellow engine light on the dash board of Toyota Camry is the indication of low oil in car.-----------
Get the oil checked and refilled.Driving the car with low oil is not advisable.-------------
There is a reset procedure to stop this yellow light on dash.In some cases this helps ,but in some cases the oil needs to be refilled to stop this yellow light.-------------
I will mention the reset procedure as follows:--
Turn on the ignition switch, set the mileometer reading to miles not trip meter, turn off the ignition fully, press the button to reset the trip meter and keep it pressed down as you turn on the ignition key to key on engine off, keep it pressed down for about 15 seconds and then the light will be reset.--------------Thanks. keep updated for any more

4cyl or V6?? Have your ignition coil checked and you vehicle scanned for the check engine light. If this is a 4cyl the coil is inside the distributor cap (possible oil leaking into the cap, very common on 4cyl camrys). If its a V6, have the Crank and cam sensors inspected. Hopefully this helps!!
bad to worn out oil pump or excessive oil passage clearances that allowing more oil to pass thru them at a lower pressure due to the bigger opening. It can be a sign of an emminant engine failure due to oil starvation.
No it is not possible. The manufacturer has engineered the vehicle so I suppose they know when the maintainence should be performed. Do you need assistance with resetting the oil=life monitor?
these cars have problems with bad oil pressure warning switches you may have someone put an oil pressure gauge on the car and make sure your pressure is within spec and go ahead and change the sender if it checks out please rate -jeff
