Does any one know where to get a oil pressure sending unit for a 24 valve cummins in a 1999 Dodge 3500 besides the Dodge dealer? They want over $200 for it. I talked to Cummins and they told me it was a Mopar item and they did not make it.
Thanks!

Unless you are just dead set on keeping it stock, before I paid that much I would put in a mechanical gauge for about 30 dollars.

Didn't have it at Cummins? That's were I got mine a couple of years ago. I think it was something like $78.

I just noticed you're in Texas. I got mine at Cummins Southern Plains in Mesquite. They have other stores in Texas.

Could you tell me if the sending unit had three prongs or two? Where I work we are tied in to Cummins on there INSITE program because some of our buses have the same engines in them that the Dodge trucks have. And I know that the sending units for them are supplied by the buse company.
The reason I ask this is that one of the prongs is a ground and the other goes to the gauge and the other to the ECM. I know this because I have pulled up the wiring diagrams on the INSITE program and it shows it this way.
I have called and talked to Cummins Southern Plains in Houston and ask them about the sending unit and they where the ones who told me to go thru Dodge. Thanks for everyones input on this matter.
I know that the Cummins INSITE is a wonderful tool inworking on the 5.9lt engines you can change alot of things if you have the right passwords.
THanks Dennis
