I have a 1998 ram with the 24 valve motor. My oil pressure takes about 5 seconds to come up on the guage. A check guages alarm sounds. I had the pressure switch replaced under warranty and have the same problem. I checked with Cummins and they say they have a new switch and harness that will fix the problem. Has anyone else had this problem and how do I convince Chry to fix it under warranty. I have 6,000 miles or until April 13th before my warranty runs out.<br>Any advice?<br>Thanks<br>Bowmex

 

I had this problem too. My truck had a 1100 miles on it and my gauge went out, it was fixed and no problems since. My truck now has 66000 miles on it now and there not easy miles.<br><br>Bob

 

My 99 has 123,000 miles on it..(i put 118,000 myself) and Ive always had the problem. Theres been a few times where Ive actually shut it down cause of no oil pressure. Specially when its cold, it takes an uncomfortable amount of time to get pressure.<br><br>RED
