I would check to see if your sender is connected. It's located on the drivers side below the exhaust manifold I believe on the 2.9. There may be two, one in the side of the oil pan, and one in the block between the oil pan and exhaust manifold..

the one on the side of the Oil pan is a oil level sensor, not eveyone has this.

typically the oil pressure sensor or sending unit is on the Drivers Side way toward the front, just above where the oil pan meet the block ....& yeah these sending units tend to not give very accurate info. A lot folks swap/add in a mechnical guage.
