Check and make sure the oil level sensor is plugged in. Its on the passenger side of the pan and if you have small arms you can reach it without jacking the car up.

All you need is Auto-Tap. HP Tuners is never a bad investment though.

I bet you have a bad sensor, or it got damaged, or like Donaimian said.
