Was driving home and my oil pressure skyrocketed.

OK, so long story short i was coming home last night took a glance down and noticed my oil pressure was off the charts. I pull over and check everything and noticed the wire coming from the oil pressure sending unit has been cut/disconnected. I need to know where this wire goes. Its torn after the connector, so im guessing it got pulled from the harness? Looks like it can easily be spliced.

Its right below the oil filter neck, protrudes out of the rear iron, looks like a knock sensor with a little end on it for the connector

That is the finest explanation of the sensor I have ever read!

its a single wire with a white connecter that slides over the end of the sensor.

It comes out of the large harness running just below.

The wire is Yellow/Red
