Camry 1998 Low Oil Pressure Warning Light

I have a toyota camry with 149K miles on it. I recently bought this car and have limited knowledge about it. Now when i keep the key in the ON position (just before cranking the engine) the following lights on the dashboard light up and stay

1. battery light
2. Low Oil Pressure Warning Light
3. Check engine light.

The ABS light is on for a few seconds and then goes off.

Now when I crank the engine only the check engine light is still on and the other two lights are off. Does this indicate problem with the oil pressure and battery? Also since the engine check light is on.. what is the likely reason for it?

Re: Camry 1998 Low Oil Pressure Warning Light

The Check engine light staying on means you have a trouble code stored in your ECM. Determine what the trouble code is by taking it to an auto supply store in your area that will read codes for you or bring it to a mechanic to have him do it.

The other things you mention are normal and not a cause for concern.
