| That's oil pressure. 1 bar = 14.7 psi. (if your grounds are good) |

Then either the pressure sender is bad or, more likely, the wire to the sender is grounded somewhere. The standard test for the gauge is to disconnect the sender wire and ground it to the head or block, the gauge will peg. I'm willing to bet the wire's broken and grounded.
