Assuming that the sending unit is connected and the wiring is in good shape- did you reinstall the condensor on the slave cylinder?

*...it's a small black box with a single wire coming from it and has a metal mounting tab...*

its really really easy to bump the wire off while you're in there tightening bolts.

i think anyone who's worked on these cars for any lenght of time has done it...

I just did my clutch/flywheel and shortly after driving, my oil pressure gauge stopped working. Turns out my connector came loose. You should check for that, and have someone with really skinny fingers.

This is the condensor. Mine broke and I have been running without it for about a month now. I can't find a replacement and every mazda stealership I go to looks at me like I have two heads. Anyone have a part number?
