Low Oil Light Coming On @ Idle

Hey guys, I removed my oil pump on my a15 this afternoon to replace the leaking gasket. Cleaned it all out with degreaser and all that.
Now i refitted it and the low oil pressure light comes on the dash at idle and low revs.
I have since removed the pump and refitted it multiple times, still does the same...
I have dismantled the pump, and everything is like new.

Does anyone know what the problem could be?
The engine was apparently rebuilt about 20,000km ago.
Maybe i need thicker oil? ( I use 15w-40 and change it regularly )
Does anyone know what Pressure in PSI the light comes on at?
Ive read that anything below 10PSI at idle is dangerously low.
Any help would be great
