engine shut down with oil pressure light but has oil?

Anyone have any ideas on a strange issue. I have a 2000 4runner with about 250k mi. The oil pressure light came on and car shut down and could not be restarted. I checked the oil level and its fine. This happen a year ago and it was the oil cooer seal, but this team there are no visible oil leaks. You cannot get a code reading on it because it won't start. It's even stumping some good mechanics in my area (Waco, TX). They tried to replace the PCM given the code reading problem, but that didn't solve it.

I told them to try jumping across the oil pressure switch, but not sure that would keep the engine from starting. The car was running fine when it stalled.
