oil pressure went to zero

[djsan67n808]

I think its my oils sender unit that might have failed... has any one else had this problem if so.. what other things might have happen... and how much does a oil sender usually cost? thanks dj

Look closely to see if the needle just went past 12 o'clock. That's what happened to mine and there is a little post deal at about 7 o'clock that it's supposed to hit and stop when coming down. Since it's past and hitting the bottom side of it, my pressure is always at 0
