Oil pressure off scale low

Zekester · 05-18-08, 10:36 AM

Was out on atrail, the wire connecter failed at the oil pressure sender, the guage went off scale high for the duration of the trip, then stayed off scale low when i started the truck again...I replaced the connector and got it on the sender...but..the guage stays off scale low, the post that holds the needle at zero is gone, so it deflects all the way down, 1/4 past zero...stock Toyota 24V guage, is it screwed? can I replace just that guage, or do i have to go with the whole cluster?
