Whoa. Dont jump the gun here. If the gauge is grounded straight through the chassis, and not through the condensor, the gauge will do that. The condensor for the oil pressure gauge is bolted onto the clutch slave.

Yes, thats the condensor. Bolt it to anything grounded. It comes on one of the bolts holding the clutch slave on. There is a wire from the harness that grounds out through the condensor. You cant just ground that wire, or your oil pressure gauge will read maxed out as soon as you turn the key on.

ok. The golden wire is connected. but the oil level still doesnt go up.
There is a black wire that comes off an addapter that is loose there could that be anything?
Am I missing anything?

Like mazdaspeed said. Just to clarify. Check to see that the sender is connected. Also, check to see that you have the little black box connected(that was on your slave). Only after you have both of those things done start looking elsewhere for problems.

Everything is hooked up properly on my car, wiring wise. I think maybe the unit is just bad.
For a split second today, when I turned the key to ON, it jumped up as usual, but when I was starting it it went back down a little bit. I dunno! There's not come kind of fuse for the oil-sending unit is there? o_O
