I'll take a guess.

Because the battery light came on... I would suspect an electrical gremlin. If it were me I'd check the battery posts... and grounds connection.

Just because you have sufficient oil doesn't mean there isn't something up with the oil pump. I'm not qualified to suggest any advice on that.

I don't know if a "scan" would reveal a faulty/bad oil pump. How's your drive belt?

In the meantime, and absent a sharper mind's input... and if it were me... I wouldn't be starting it, let alone driving it.

Alright... I'm waiting for sharper minds to chime in (so I can learn something new).

Best wishes.
