Rpms drop from like 1100 to 900 when all the electrical load is on

Is this the same symptom that everyone else has prior to replacing sensor? Flickers at low rpm, then goes away while driving?

Car drives and pulls great still tbh lol
And yes oil is topped off, a smidge over the full mark

I have a new sensor and tool, need to find some time to do it...
There's two possibilities, the switch is bad or the engine has low oil pressure.
