My oil gauge on the dash is pegged to the right (high) all the time. Goes higher when the key is on. I unplugged both senders (one for dash, other is for Cat ECM) turned key on- no change. Grounded the one with a single lead- no change. I think the one with two wires is for ECM. Can anyone confirm? If all this is true, do you guys think it is in the gauge or is it grounded in the loom some where?

OK guys, I answered my own question. The two wire connector is the one going to the gauge. Ground the tan wire and it goes to low, no ground at tan wire and the needle goes to high. Bad sender!! Hope this can help some else. I am going to change topic title to reflect oil pressure too.
