I bought this truck recently, 2006 with the 5.7 and the oil pressure gauge didn't work. I received paperwork showing a mechanic tested the oil pressure and it was reading 30-60psi so everything was good.
I replaced the sensor, three wire plug down by the oil filter. No changes. Still not working. My question is, how do I trick the actual GAUGE in the dash using voltage to show that it has pressure just to check that the actual gauge works so I can narrow down my search for the problem? Can I jump two of the sensor wires together? If so, which ones?
