first see how much oil you have. if you have no oil, then you have no oil pressure for sure.
if you have enough oil, then you could have a bad oil pump, bad sender or bad gauge, or or bad wires from the sender to the gauge, or some kind of blockage so no oil gets to teh part of the engine where the sender is. or any combination of those.
the sender is just below the oil filter.

as drewl said, check the connection at the sender. that is the most common failure and can be easily overlooked. make sure you have a good connection. then if you do, test to see if you have 12V at the connector when the key is in the accy position. start there and post back.
