I went to start my car and heard clicking. Checked the battery, works fine. All lights come on in van.
The engine light comes on and blinks and the oil light comes on.
Oil is fine, engine oil is fine.

Did you hear a single or continuous clicking? If it is a single click, it is your starter, which I highly doubt. If it is continuous clicking, you should take the battery out of the vehicle, and get it load-tested. Now, before you say that you check the battery and all the lights works, so the battery is good; keep in mind that it only takes less than 2 amps to turn ALL your lights and other accessories in the vehicles, but it takes hundreds of amps to turn the motor. Being the car is about 3 years old, I suspect that you will need a new battery.
