My gauge is erratic. Good oil level, low or erratic reading. Where is the sending unit located? Please

Hello,

The oil pressure sending unit is located on the back of the engine between the engine and firewall.

I have attached a diagram below for your reference.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.

That says it's a pressure switch. I have a gauge though. Are the switch and the sensor in the same place?

It is the same sensor. It does not call for a secondary sensor.
