The wire on the oil pressure sending unit might be loose or disconnected. Carefully and thoroughly clean terminal post and wire plug making sure there is solid contact between the plug and terminal. That's what fixed mine.

This has been discussed within the last two weeks. Do a search for a ton of good info on how to diagnose and replace the sender if needed.
