If she has the sensor replaced have them take the stupid screen out at the same time. Did she say if it ran rough at all while showing 0 or did it run normal for the few moments before she got the vehice shut off?

Well she's been driving it like that since Tuesday. Lol. So I'm assuming it runs fine. I bought a sensor but man is it a pain to get to. I gave up for the night. Not sure if I want to tackle it or not.

Well after talking with the dealer, I found new motivation. I went out and had it change in about an hour. The dealer wanted $665 I've got $62 in it with new sensor and socket.

I think I need to do this as well. I get lower readings (never CEL or 0 psi) and have found a couple articles referencing the screens.

Anyone come across a video/how to?

Ok I think my mom is running into this issue now. 07 Tahoe 118k. I changed her oil two weeks ago(pennzoil high mileage/wix)and she just told me that her oil pressure is reading 0. CEL is on(haven't scanned yet). No oil light or message.
PENNZOIL?????????
