I noticed the oil pressure gauge showing increased readings. Now it pegs out
at 120 psi all the time. Wondering if anyone has had this problem.  Where is
the sending unit located? Thanks

Engine Oil Pressure Sensor
Right side of the engine under the power steering pump

Did the sender correct your problem?  My 2000 Bonneville is doing the same
thing.  I replaced the Oil Level Sensor and it still shows 120 PSI.  Any
other suggestions?

My 94 TransSport used to peg the needle on accelleration, untill I
found a broken ground wire where it connected to the front
crossmember, close to the starter. Repaired the ground, and the oil
pressure reading now stays where it belongs.
