Low oil pressure/ check gauge light

Asked by Tink9955 Nov 07, 2019 at 06:16 AM about the 2001 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT Club Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have just changed my oil pump on my truck
to solve a low oil pressure issue. I have no
noise or rattling coming from the engine. After
changing the pump I will get oil pressure for
like the first 10-15 minutes of running the
truck then my gauge just drops and sits there
at 0 and my check gauge light comes on. I
was wondering if this could be because the
gauge itself is out and I need a new dash
cluster or if something else is causing the
issue.
