The Oil Gauge shows 120 all the time. As high as it goes.

I noticed the gauge so went to the place I get my oil changed. My car tends to get low on oil when it's about time to be changed. I noticed it had only 200 miles until it was time to be changed so had them go ahead and change it. The needle didn't move at all. It still shows 120 as soon as I start the car.

Do you think it is the gauge? Is that driven by a fuse? I checked the manual and couldn't find it listed in the fuse list. What could cause this? Engine makes no noise or smell. Suggestion was an oil pump.
