Hello, I have a Volvo Penta 5.0 GXI-G and the oil pressure gauge reads max pressure all the time. The gauge max dial reading is 80 psi and when I turn the ignition to "on" so the accessories and gauges have power (without starting the engine), the dial pegs all the way past the 80 psi reading. I cleaned and tightened the connections on the back of the gauge in case that was contributing to the issue but problem persists. I suspect some sort of short or maybe a bad oil pressure sensor, maybe bad gauge, but was looking for confirmation or other possible ideas as to what could be the issue.
Thanks,
Dennis
