After Service when you drive and slow down to stop when refs fall under 1000 rpm the oil warning light come on. When driving light goes off stay off

The chance is good that the oil was replace with thin oil. If the car idles lower than it did before the service it can also be the cause and need to be adjusted to higher rpm. No immediate damage to the engine forseen but need to be rectified asp especially if the car is going to idle frequently or for extended periods.

Why does the oil light turn on when rpm drops below 1000

Oil light pops on at low rpm because at a low rpm, your engine is not running fast enough to maintain full pressure. this is because either you have an oil leak, or defective oil pressure switch.

Have a reputable garage check the oil pressure with a manual oil pressure gauge. Very well may have worn internal parts, or weak oil pump. Thats the only way to know for sure.

I have a 2000 Chrysler Grand Voyager. The oil light keeps coming on when the engine is at an idle, under 1000 rpms. If I am driving and the RPM's get up above 1000 the light will go off. I checked the oil...

could also be wrong type of oil but worst case is the big end bearings inside the engine have gotten to big to maintain oil pressure and as you guessed the oil pump could be worn out, i would try changing oil pump first.

2002 Lancer OZ Rally...

I had the same problem with my 2003 Lancer OZ. The oil level and pressure were ok. Car was fine with no light when starting. After 10 to 15 mins of driving it would come on when I was stopped. It would go away when I pressed accelerator. Try replacing the Oil Sending Unit. It's about $10 and easy to swap. That was my problem.
