Downeast Johnny Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Welcome to the site Pickles. If you are confident that you still have oil pressure I would check the sending unit. It's also possible that you have an instrument cluster prob. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

battousai Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I would check, make sure you have oil pressure with a manual Guage. So that your not throwing money at it... If you are getting oil pressure at all times, sounds like it could be the pressure sending unit, or a bad wire.

1quicktruck Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Could be a stepper motor. I replaced one then 30days later another gauge went out. I then had all the motors in the dash replaced. I think from 2002 to 2005 , they had defective gauges failures do to stepper motors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onebadmax Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 (edited) Sending unit. 25 bucks or so at oriellys. Try that out first. Could be stepper motor in cluster too though.
