Default Oil pressure, I already STFA.

Driving home from work today, my autocheck beeped and showed me the dripping can. My analog oil pressure guage was showing low pessure also, but it was only below 2000RPM's. Shortly after this the analog guage showed no pressure. In seaching the archives, it seems to have a variety of remedies. I'm going to start with my IC, since I changed the ignition switch and the stupid pot metal tab out a couple of weeks ago. Plenty of oil, could this be the oil pump if it's not the IC?

Default If your gauge AND your autocheck say your oil pressure is low...

you should probably assume you actually have low oil pressure until proven otherwise.

Default I had the Autocheck low oil pressure after replacing the IGN switch...

I pulled the IC back out and pulled the rear connectors one at at time till I found the one for the Autocheck oil pressure (I think it was the far left one). I then de-mated and inspected the pins on both sides carefully. Put it all back together being careful not to bend wires too sharply and all has been well for a couple months.
