Hey guys, I've got an 01 GT. Anyway theres a thing on this forum that I read that you can get your odo to show your tach, mph, and things like that. Anyway when I get to the oil pressure it reads 0, everything else works and has a number, including my fuel pressure and battery voltage. And the stock oil pressure gage is pointing straight up, but when I get to the one in the odo it says 000. Do I have something wrong with my car? And does anyone have a link to the thread where it talks about this? I haven't been able to find it.

The oil pressure gauge is nothing more than a jazzed up warning light. The sender will only drop the gauge if the pressure goes as low as 6psi.

The electronic readout is 0-255 (zero is normal) so your car is fine.

it is ok for it to read 000, it is not a real oil presure gauge, those numbera re just values that the HEC uses to figure out where to put the needle. 000 is in the normal range.
