I have a 2004 350z oil pressure gauge was reading 120 stuck so I changed sensor now gauge reads 0 so I manually checked oil pressure it's fine 40 at warm up idle could I have got bad sender ordered on line or do you think gauge is bad and oil light is on Mechanic's Assistant: Have you checked the oil?

Hi my name is \*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\* I'll try to help you with this issue, the website may assk if you want a call, but that is up to you, So either you have a bad senser or the wrong one.

you think I got bad sender it's brand new got onlineBefore I changed sensor gauge was stuck at 120 now light on and gauge at zero so checked mechanical y pressure at 40 psi when warm needle steady pressure goodthey sent me a bad sensor
Automotive Expert
most likely as you have proven the pump is good.

basically the oil light. Is telling me faulty sensor if it was gauge light would be off
Automotive Expert
yes that's about it.

I have seven days of trial working on my 2004 350zmy ac clutch not pulling in went straight to wire plug at compressor to see if I have voltage and I have 11.8 volts what's the problem
Automotive Expert
So if there is ground at the other wire then you have a bad clutch coil, which is difficult to change and is best done, by changing the compressor. And even though you have this trial period you need to start a new question. But thanks for asking on JA

Thanks kurt just wanted to let you know on that first qeustion about oil sender you were right they gave me a bad one went and purchased one locally works fine thanka
