my oil pressure is pegged out 120. Iv put in a new cluster . but now today while driving to work it went nuts from 0 to 120 .any help guys im leaning to maybe a bad ground or short. could the sending unit do this.
 
my 96 1500 z71 did the same thing...turned out there was only about 2 quarts of oil in it. you checked your oil level?

Do you have any other way to montor your oil pressure? ie: scan tool, or does your six gun tuner have the pda? If you do, try monitoring it when your oil pressure guage goes haywire and see what it shows.
 
OK it was the oil pressure sending unit pain in the but to change just no working room and was around $65
