oil pressure sensor question

Ok ive done my research. My oil pressure gauge reads 0 pressure. I think its my oil pressure sensor because i sprung a leak right near there n it sprayed coolant all ova in that area. How would i test to c if it is my oil pressure sensor. Im afraid to drive my car because idk if it is getting pressure or if its just a bad oil pressure sensor.

id have to double check but, it worked 2 days ago when i sprung a leak and i believe also 2day but i dint check...also i should add my car over heated to a tad less then the H 3 times and i had like barely any oil in my car. Whats odd is i did an oil change 4 days ago.







I just look the leak was right below the oil pressure sensor =(

curious

just curious, my oil pressure reads 0 too. Where is the sensor located? i cant seem to find any loose wires, i was messing with my spark plugs and then the pressure read 0, so im assuming i pulled a switch somewhere. Anyone help?
